Netizens are impressed by Madhuri Dixit’s remarkable performance at the age of 52 in the BTS video of ‘Tabah Ho Gaye’ and accuse the directors of intentionally ignoring her to emphasise Alia Bhatt in ‘Kalank’.

With her exceptional dancing abilities and stunning smile, Madhuri Dixit unquestionably commands a gazillion hearts. With her role as a young bride in the 1984 movie Abodh, the diva made her glamorous film debut. Over time, Madhuri experimented with several cinema genres and rose to prominence as the most adored and sought-after actress of her generation. Madhuri’s dancing abilities are still highly regarded, and nobody can match her grace and elegance.

Madhuri Dixit took a break from performing to focus on her personal life after marrying Shriram Madhav Nene and starting a family with her two kids, Arin and Ryan. She worked on a few films in between, such as Aaja Nachle, but her big break came in the 2019 film Kalank, where she played a supporting role and virtually stole the show from the main actors with her acting and dancing skills.

A Reddit user recently posted a behind-the-scenes video of Madhuri elegantly executing the song’s ending sequence from the movie Kalank. The video is from the single Tabah Ho Gaye. Even at fifty-two, the actress completed the entire shot in one take, and with great precision!

Netizens took to the BTS video’s comments section to draw attention to the way the song’s portion that included Alia Bhatt was cut out. A user posted, “Still can’t believe a filmmaker sliced through parts of a Madhuri song, with choreography by the legendary Saroj Khan, to show that pathetic mess of a love story”, to which another user replied, “Because Aloo baby had to be the new Kathak queen. Remember how she was dancing at every promotion.” Another fan penned, “Also, how they made Alia dance and Madhuri just stand and applaud for Ghar More Pardesiya.” Watch the video here.
