If reports are to be believed, the Latin American singer will croon a cabaret song in soon- to- be started project.

Composer duo Salim- Sulaiman will come up with a rocking track for the Prashant Chadha- directed film, which stars entrepreneur Sachin Joshi in the lead. Joshi is one of the sponsors of Kolkata Knight Riders, an Indian Premier League team.

Though Salim has been claiming that “ it will be a very sensuous cabaret kind of song”, the Colombian singer hasn’t mentioned any such ‘ offer’ in her interviews, on her website or social networking portals.

The publicist for Chadha and Joshi has also claimed that she can’t confirm Shakira’s involvement in the film. “ Please talk to Percept Pictures — the movie’s producer — about it. I don’t want to fuel any speculation,” she said.

Meanwhile, the buzz is that Shakira’s song, slated to be recorded in a couple of months, will be filmed on Playboy girl Candice Boucher, who also stars in the film.

Reports suggest that Joshi is in touch with Shakira over the song.

Apparently, the lyrics will be in English, but with a smattering of easy Hindi.

Shakira, on her part, is not totally new to India. In 2007, she performed live in Mumbai and other Indian cities and has also expressed her desire to be part of Bollywood in various interviews.

She is currently in the news for her FIFA World Cup song, Waka Waka.
