She doesn't like the expression "item number", but actress Hamsa Nandini, who has grooved to four popular dance songs in southern films in just a few months, says the reach that such numbers give to actors is phenomenal.

Hamsa Nandini admits these songs help in reaching out to the masses.

"It gives you phenomenal reach especially if you're paired opposite big stars. I believe it is a good platform to reach out to the masses. I'm happy doing a five-minute dance number that assures me a lot of attention rather than featuring in 10 scenes in a film with no scope for performance," said Hamsa Nandini, who started career as a model.

Currently, one of her item numbers with superstar Nagarjuna is awaiting release. Her dance sequence with Pawan Kalyan is seen in Telugu film "Attarintiki Daaredhi".

"Doing a song with Pawan Kalyan or Nagarjuna is truly a blessing. These are opportunities I would never want to miss. I'm extremely happy that with every song, audiences have only expected more from me. They have created an image of me and I want to live up to it," she added.

"There have been so many actresses who have featured in item numbers over the years, but very few gave repeat performances. I'm glad that audiences have not discarded me and are still expecting something more from me," said Hamsa, who has also featured in a dance number in NTR-starrer Ramayya Vasthavayya.

"I have landed a plum role in the period flick 'Rudhramadevi'. I'm playing a challenging role and I'm giving my best because for the first time viewers will actually get see my performance. This film means a lot to me and it packs a surprise factor," said Hamsa Nandini.

"I have been offered a few roles, but as I pointed out already, I don't want to be seen in a few scenes without any purpose. If I get a performance-oriented role, then I'll be more than happy to take it up," she added.

"Rudhramadevi" is being directed by Gunasekhar. It also features Anushka Shetty, Rana Daggubati, Aditi Chengappa, Nathalia Kaur and Baba Sehegal.
