Remixed Tunes!
Talking about remixed tunes, we all are cringing over the recent 'Ek Do Teen' track from 'Baaghi 2' featuring Jacqueline Fernandez. We were okay of creating a new song by being inspired by an old one, but killing an old number is not acceptable.
Titillating costumes!
Skimpily-clad actresses dancing in item numbers is the major reason why this trend is a hit. Rare are the instances when item numbers are all about grace and charm instead of titillating and eye-catchy costumes.
Drunk Fest!
For an item number to be a hit, we surely need to have some drunkards trying to lure the item girl. However cheap it may be, but it is all there!
Suggestive dance steps!
Until an unless you know how to move your booty in perfect sync with the tune, you would suck at being an item dancer.
Double Meaning lyrics!
"Pallu ke neeche chupa ke rakha hai Utha doon toh hangama ho ho ho". Okay then!
Perverts all around!
Item numbers are all about wooing someone and then we have the pervert villain who takes the cake!
Money shower!
Lastly we have the money shower. People may die of hunger, but then, an item number is all about money, honey!

On this note, we decode seven components that make up a Bollywood item number.
