Item numbers have always been an integral part of Hindi film industry. Filmmakers have been using them since decades to add that extra oomph to their films. Yesteryear dancing divas like Helen, Bindu, Padma Khanna and Aruna Irani's songs still hold a special place in our hearts. 

One dance form that has remained a constant in Bollywood item numbers is belly-dance. The middle-eastern dance form has always been directors' go-to dance style when it comes to sultry and bold numbers. Over the years, many prominent actresses from Bollywood have emraced the dance form on the silver screen. 

Here's a look at some of the recent time actresses who stunned us with their belly dancing skills -

Katrina Kaif - Song: Sheila Ki Jawani

It was hard to choose one song for Katrina because she has treated the audience with her belly dance moves in various songs namely Sheila Ki Jawani, Mashallah, Aaya Re Aaya Bodyguard. She is a fabulous dancer and hence it's no surprise she is producers' first choice when it comes to dance numbers. 

Rani Mukerji - Song: Aga Bai

One of the most talented actors of Bollywood, Rani Mukerji, left everyone spell bound with her belly dance moves in the song Aga Bai from her movie Aiyya. The film may have tanked at the box office but this song still remains one of Bollywood's sexiest songs. 

Priyanka Chopra - Song: Ram Chahe Leela

After a string of failed item numbers like Bubbly Badmaash from Shootout at Waadala and Pinky from her disastrous film Zanjeer, Priyanka finally redeemed herself with Ram Chahe Leela — a ‘modern mujra’, as she likes to call it. 

Nora Fatehi - Song: Dilbar

The self-taught Indo American dancer and actress Nora Fatehi is immensely popular on various social platforms due to her dance videos. Her latest song Dilbar from the film Satyameva Jayate created history for being India’s fastest song to hit the 20 million mark in 24 hours. Not only is Nora looking stunning, but she has also nailed the choreography with some classic belly dance moves.

Mallika Sherawat - Song: Mayya Mayya

Mallika Sherawat may have rose to popularity with her films like Murder and Khwahish but she is best remembered for her dance number Mayya Mayya from the film Guru. She looked ridiculously hot as she dared to bare in the video. 

Deepika Padukone - Song: Lovely

Other than being a brilliant actor, Deepika is also a trained dancer. Happy New Year might not be one of the best films of her career, but her belly-dance moves in 'Lovely' are surely to die for. 

It's hard to believe that these actresses are not professional dancers!
