Munni badnaam hui (English: Munni was defamed) is an item number from the 2010 Bollywood movie Dabangg featuring Malaika Arora Khan along with Sonu Sood and Salman Khan. The song is sung by Mamta Sharma and Aishwarya Nigam, with music by Lalit Pandit. Mamata Sharma won the Filmfare award for best female playback singer for this song, while Sajid-Wajid and Lalit Pandit won the Filmfare award for best music director in the 56th Filmfare Awards 2011.

Due to its popularity, Malaika (and the song itself) was frequently compared to actress Katrina Kaif and her item number Sheila Ki Jawani from the 2010 movie Tees Maar Khan.

Director of Dabangg Abhinav Kashyap stated that the song was inspired by his childhood memories of the folk Bhojpuri song "Launda Badnaam Hua Naseeban Tere Liye" from the album Balma Bada Bavaali sung by Rani Bala. However, reports suggest that the Bhojpuri song itself was plagiarized from a song "Ladka badnaam hua" from a Pakistani movie titled Mr. Charlie.

The Reception by the public and critics was generally positive. Devesh Sharma of Filmfare noted the song's raunchy nature and praised the song for its tempo, at the same time criticizing its "nonsensical" lyrics. Atta Khan of Planet Bollywood said of the song "... expect it to explode with Mallaika's entrance on the big screen and chances are, after watching that you may enjoy it... "
