Veteran choreographer Saroj Khan passed away a few days back after battling some heart issues. Her demise left many Bollywood and television celebrities teary-eyes as they recall their fond memories of learning dance from the legendary artist.
Likewise, Dhak Dhak actress Madhuri Dixit pens an emotional tribute for her masterji as she's still not over the fact that she's no more. Madhuri wrote, "I still can't believe master Ji is no more. Losing a friend, philosopher guide like her is devastating. It was difficult for me to put down my grief in words. I had spoken to her daughter when she was in the hospital she told me that Saroj ji would be fine. Two days later, she was gone," her post starts off. "The Guru-shishya bond that we shared, the assurance that she would be my mother on the sets, I'll miss everything. Today on the occasion of Guru Purnima, I pay my tribute to her."
She added, "Nobody can make women look so beautiful, desirable sensuous on-screen like her. She made everything look like poetry in motion," Madhuri wrote. "Saroj Khan was a game-changer in the industry. She was the rebel in the male-dominated profession. There were rough edges to her personality I feel that's because life has been pretty uneven to her."
"Saroj ji taught me how to romance the camera when we worked on Ek Do Teen," Madhuri revealed. Speaking about Tamma Tamma's hook step, Madhuri added, "Her Nazakat, the aadayein, the elegance of every move, I was besotted. I knew we would do a lot of songs together. So we decided not to repeat any of the movements. She agreed to create hook steps that people will identify with every song. We created so many movements with no knowledge about what they are called. Who knew Tamma Tamma step was Dab? I'll miss inventing hook steps with her," she concluded.
