Actress Madhuri Dixit, who performed ‘lavani’ in the song ‘Humko aajkal hai’, says she is looking forward to Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone’s dance in Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s forthcoming magnum opus Bajirao Mastani .
“Anything about dance always excites me, so I am very, very excited to see Priyanka Chopra and Deepika Padukone’s ‘lavani’ dance in ‘Bajirao Mastani’,” Madhuri said. In the film, Priyanka and Deepika will perform a ‘lavani’ dance together. It is touted to be a crucial part of the film’s climax.
Madhuri, who is a trained classical dancer and is also credited to have introduced the folk dance in films, has earlier teamed up with actresses like Karisma Kapoor and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in songs on screen.
Recalling that time, Madhuri said, “I had a competition with Karisma in Dil To Pagal Hai It was wonderful. Shiamak (Davar) was the choreographer for that.”
“The dancing was a little more jazz and contemporary and I was doing that style for the first time. I enjoyed doing it,” she added.
