Anil Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit starrer Tezaab completes 32 years of its release today. The film was a super hit at the box office and has received a cult status.


Tezaab is remembered for a lot of reasons and one of them is the songs. The track Ek Do Teen is still loved by the audiences and of course, we can’t forget Madhuri’s amazing dance moves in it. Well, the person behind those dance moves was Saroj Khan.

The legendary choreographer passed away in July this year and today as Tezaab completes 32 years, Anil Kapoor remembered Saroj Khan. The actor tweeted, “To the legend who made the song Ek, Do, Teen iconic with her art and vision!  This ones for your Saroj ji! #32YearsOfTezaab.”

When Saroj Khan had passed away, Anil had posted on Instagram, “With her grace & artistry, Saroj ji found a place in all our hearts that noone has ever been able to take... she made the most beautiful dance compositions and turned many non-dancers into dancers. I was fortunate enough to work with her in many films and got to learn a lot from her. She brought out the dancer in me that I didn't even know was there! Her movements were magic & her face could express so many beautiful emotions... there’s no one like her... Saroj ji has left her mark and will be remembered forever... I will miss her a lot...Love You Saroj ji...Thank You for everything.”
