Malaika Arora Khan, who turned producer with 2010 superhit "Dabangg", says she has no plans to return to acting but is open to item numbers.
"Now I am enjoying making films. I am really enjoying being a producer. It is a very different aspect in my life, so that's what I love doing. I am not interested in acting," the 39-year-old said here Wednesday at the launch of Naturals Marvie lounge.
Malaika featured in a few cameos at the start of her career in films like "Bichhoo", "Kaante" and "Housefull". She is game to dance in movies.
"I love dancing and I will continue doing that. I am very happy like this," added Malaika, who has grooved to popular numbers like "Chhaiya chhaiya" and "Munni badnaam".
Malaika, who has also judged TV shows like "Nach Baliye", "Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa" and "India's Got Talent", is also open to similar small screen assignments.
"We are very busy making films right now and all our concentration is over there. That doesn't mean I don't want to do anything else, I will be doing other things as well," she said.
Meanwhile, Malaika is ready to produce another film, which may start around the end of 2013 or early next year.
