‘Aag Lag Jayegi!’


‘Madhuriji
and
Vidyaji
are
expert
dancers,
but
the
chemistry
they
created
on
screen…’

As
far
as
face-offs
go,
Madhuri
Dixit
and
Vidya
Balan
in

Bhool
Bhulaiyaa
3

are
far
ahead
of
Ajay
Devgan
and
Arjun
Kapoor
in

Singham
Again
.

Not
since

Dola
Re

in
Sanjay
Bhansali’s

Devdas

when
Madhuri
Dixit
danced
with
Aishwarya
Rai,
has
a
dance

jugalbandi

raised
such
a
roar
of
enthusiasm
among
cinegoers.

Director
Anees
Bazmee
can’t
get
over
the
experience
of
shooting
the

Am
Je
Tomar

song.

“When
was
the
last
time
you
saw
a
classical
Indian
dance
performance
in
our
cinema?”
he
asks

Subhash
K
Jha
.

“Correct
me
if
I
am
wrong,
but
it
was
Vidya
Balanji
in
the
first

Bhool
Bhulaiyaa

17
years
ago.
Now
when
Vidyaji
is
joined
by
Madhuriji,
it
was
a
dream
come
true.
We
were
all
watching
open-mouthed.
Somewhere
we
knew
history
was
being
made.”

Anees
Bazmee
feels
honoured
to
have
shot
the

jugalbandi

between
the
two
dancing
divas.

“It
was
surreal,
historic.
We
all
know
Madhuriji
and
Vidyaji
are
expert
dancers,
but
the
chemistry
they
created
on
screen…

Aag
lag
jayegi!

“Although
Kartik
Aaryan
was
not
needed
for
that
shoot,
he
was
there
watching
the
two
divas
dancing,
mesmerised.
For
all
of
us,
this
experience
is
unmatchable.”
