According to the grape vine, Aamir Khan is said to be on the lookout for an A-list star for an item song in his home production Delhi Belly.

According to industry sources, Aamir, the master planner, wants to give his medium budget production, Delhi Belly starring nephew Imran Khan the big push by roping in a big starlet for an item song. The song is not a gimmick but a part of the film.

Sources further reveal, “Apparently, Aamir first tried it out with his 3 Idiot’s co-star Kareena Kapoor but since she is busy with shooting commitments she could not allot her dates. Roping in the current flavor of the season Priyanka Chopra also crossed his mind but it looked like it might be too much of an ego issue for him, since his request for a screen test for her during the casting of Ghajini had not gone down too well for her. Now it remains to be seen who shall be finally be the one who shall be chosen by Mr. Perfectionist.”

Maybe Aamir Khan can hold a talent search show on T.V. , like Shah Rukh Khan’s search for Kolkata Knight Riders’ cheer leaders. But then he would not get any A –list stars for the part.
