"Abhishek & I don't dance in Mehbooba"

Putting to rest all speculation hours before the release, The Big B clarifies that the Mehbooba song in RGV's Aag is purely Urmila Matondkar's sizzle drizzle.
Says the Big B, "Like Gabbar in Ramesh Sippy's Sholay my character Babban stays out of the dance number. He's more a curious spectator than a participant. No, I don't get to dance with Urmila."
So what was it like watching his son dance with one of screen's most sensational sizzlers?
"Even Abhishek doesn’t shake a leg with Urmila. He just sings a few lines, strums around. That's it. Mehbooba is essentially Urmila's moment of glory."
This isn't the first time that Urmila will sizzle in an exceptional item song. Earlier she wowed audiences with the number Chamma chamma and Aaaiye aa jaaiyiye in Raj Kumar Santoshi's China Gate and Lajja.
Says Urmila, "Dancing is my passion. And when you have both the Bachchans as your co-star in the dance you are bound to be even more enthused. I'm a big fan of Amitji and Helenji. So my Mehbooba is a double tribute."
