Neetu Chandra feels that she can shake her booty better than most dancers. "I am sure I can dance better than most other actresses in the film industry. But it's just that they get the chance to show their moves," Neetu said.
After attempting a mujra a la ageless beauty Rekha in 'Sadiyaan', actress Neetu Chandra feels that she can be a Bollywood version of Shakira or Jennifer Lopez.
"Unfortunately, my choice of films has been such that they hardly have any scope for dancing numbers. But I have a long way to go and I am just waiting to get a spicy song."I would love to do a commercial dance number and move like Jennifer Lopez and Shakira. Their style is lovely. And any such change would be great fun for me," she added.
Neetu Chandra who has learnt Kathak in school is currently taking lessons in western dancing. She is a huge Madhuri Dixit fans and one of her favorite songs is
'Choli ke peechhe'.
"She was a class apart. The kind of music came in her days is no longer composed in the industry. Songs like 'Choli ke peechhe' and 'Dhak dhak karne lagaa' were amazing. I would have loved to perform on those numbers. I know I can never be Madhuri Dixit, but even if people say I'm 10 percent of her, I would feel my efforts have paid off," she said.
The 33 year old sex goddess Neetu Chandra feels that she could have outdone dancing in videos like 'Chhaliya Chhaliya' and 'Happening', originally performed by Kareena Kapoor and Preity Zinta respectively. However, Neetu wouldnt want to be an item girl.
"I can never be tagged as an item girl because I have lost that opportunity. I never got a chance to dance. I hope filmmakers cast me for a dance number soon. All seven films that I have done have been performance based. There was no space for me to do any dance in them," she said.
Neetu Chandra however, is open to an item girl song only if the script demands.
"All actresses - Aishwarya, Preity Zinta, Rani Mukerji - have all done item numbers. They can dance, but they did it only when the script required it. So I would love to do it when a script requires me to do it. I am not afraid of being put into an image of an item girl - because I keep breaking my own image with every film."
