Madhuri Dixit in talks for Saroj Khan’s biopic

Madhuri Dixit in talks for Saroj Khan’s biopic
 
Bhushan Kumar recently confirmed that preparations for choreographer Saroj Khan’s biopic are in full swing. “We are working on Saroj ji’s biopic which Hansal sir is doing. Directed and created by Hansal Mehta. That’s in the writing stage. In OTT, you have to write a lot, and when it’s a biopic, it’s a lot more,” he shared in an interview.

While details about how the story will unfold and who will play the role of the ace choreographer aren’t finalised yet, sources tell us that Madhuri Dixit Nene’s name is being considered for the same. “Writing is still at a very nascent stage and hence nothing concrete has come out. However, the makers are trying to have a series of actors to play Saroj ji in different phases of her life. For example, one girl will play Saroj ji in her younger days, while the other one will play her older version. And Madhuri is being considered for one of these roles.”

The source also explains how there is a lot to cover in the biopic. “There are many things to show through the biopic as Khan’s life was full of highs and lows. And that’s why the writers are still deciding which angle to choose to show the story.”

Another source also reveals Dixit’s name being considered for the film, “6 months ago, there were talks about Madhuri Dixit being the central character. She was also approached for the same. And she is an ideal choice because Madhuri ka career define karne me Saroj Khan ka bahut bada haath raha hai. Most of her popular songs - from Dhakk Dhakk to Ek Do Teen - were all hits courtesy Saroj Khan. Even Madhuri always ensured that Saroj Khan choreographs her. Moreover, both of them shared a very close bond and understanding. It was easier for her to communicate with Madhuri.”
