Meenakshi Seshadri - Raindrenched Wet Saree Song

Havent they disappeared completely ! It was almost a mandatory feature throughout the 80's to the 90's , getting the heroine raindrenched in a sheer saree and a sensual song following it. Back when smooching was almost taboo on the screen , the wet saree song was a must to pull in the frontbenchers. With the advent of 'item numbers' and liplocks the infamous wet saree song disappeared from "bollywood" completely, frankly I cant remember a decent movie in the near past where there was a fullout wet saree song. Comparatively the South kept the flag flying , not only do they have their share of item numbers and liplocks in their movies but also a sizeable amount of wet saree songs.
