Give Madhuri Dixit Nene a dance floor, and everyone knows what she is in a position to. A complete generation of filmgoers grew up seeing Madhuri dance in movies like Dil To Pagal Hai (1997), Devdas (2002) and Aaja Nach Le (2007). But now, the versatile actor is prepared to do something new — Season Five of the fame dance show Jhalak Dikkhla Jaa (to air on Colors from next week) will see her sing for the primary time!
The actor recently recorded a brand new version of Kabhi Kabhi, the title track from the 1975 Amitabh Bachchan movie. The 47-year-old recorded the song early on Wednesday. And he or she wasn’t alone. Filmmaker Karan Johar, who's a judge together with Madhuri at the show, has also recorded a shayari in AB Sr’s style, that allows you to join the song.
Ever the perfectionist, Madhuri installed 10 straight hours for the song that may be expected for use as a part of the outlet episode of the show. The speculation behind getting Madhuri and Karan to record a song was to focus on the show’s underlying theme: stepping out of one’s comfort zone.
The lyrics, with the exception of the primary line, are believed to be completely new, although the tune have been maintained from the unique track picturised on Rakhi and Amitabh. The brand new lyrics has been written to let Madhuri express her gratitude towards her audience for bringing her back to Mumbai and to showbiz.
An evidently excited Madhuri tells us, “I felt the show’s opening episode is the easiest platform for me to step out of my comfort zone and thank my fans for his or her immense support. Singing is something that has always intrigued me. I’ve had numerous fun engaged on the song.” She adds, “It’s a perfect thrill and some of the biggest moments for me right now.”
Karan, who turned 40 last month amid much fanfare, has only words for praise for his co-judge: “Madhuri is the queen of dancing in Bollywood, and an unbelievable actor. Within the recording studio, behind the mic, I FOUND that there's another side to her. She’s an implausible singer. I BELIEVE the song has turned out rather well. I can’t wait to understand what the audience has to say.”
