Madhuri Dixit-Jaaved Jaaferi recreate ‘Gabbar Singh Yeh Keh Kar Gaya’ after almost three decades
Mumbai, June 8 (IANS) Reliving some fond memories, Madhuri Dixit and Jaaved Jaaferi reunited to recreate their iconic song “Gabbar Singh Yeh Keh Kar Gaya” during a recent episode of the dance reality show “India’s Best Dancer Season 5”.
Host Harsh Limbachiyaa requested Madhuri and Jaaved to perform on the song from the 1991 film “100 Days”. This was followed by a fun-filled and energetic performance as Madhuri, Jaaved, and the contestants came together to recreate the iconic track.
Following the performance, sharing an amusing back story of the song, Jaaved said, “Ye I think do rato mai kiya tha Chinni prakash sir ne choreograph, and uss vakt ye (Madhuri) kuch do teen shifte karti thi to rehearsal ka time to hota nahi tha, mai to naya naya tha to maine kaha sir rehearsal to kaha vo but jo set pe kiya vo result to dikhta hai, she is amazing aur unko rehearsal ki bohot kam zarurat hai. I know because maine do gaane kiye hai inke sath, without rehearsal at all, the way she performed was amazing (I think this was done in two nights; and at that time, she (Madhuri) would be very busy, so there wasn’t time for rehearsal. I was new, so I asked sir, ‘Where is the rehearsal?’ But whatever was done on set shows the result—she is amazing and needs very little rehearsal. I know because I have done two songs with her, without rehearsal at all; the way she performed was amazing..”
Madhuri added, “Uss vakt ke liye bohot alag film thi because like mystery thriller aur bohot se log ahi jo aaj bhi mujhse kehete hain that was the first time I got so scared while watching a movie kyuki ismai sabhi characters itne acche se written ki pata nahi chalta tha who is the murderer aur there were a lot of scenes that were amazing aur ek aur gaana tha humara le le dil de de dil, vo karte hue bohot maza aaya tha. (It was a very different film for that time because it was like a mystery thriller and many people even today tell me that was the first time they got so scared while watching a movie because all the characters were written so well that you didn’t know who the murderer was and there were a lot of scenes that were amazing and there was also another song of ours ‘Le Le Dil, De De Dil’, performing that was a lot of fun.)”
Jaaved then responded, “Obviously, this was more of a fun song.”
Madhuri later agreed saying, “This was more like a mood, fun song dancy, dancy tha gaana.”
“India’s Best Dancer Season 5” airs every Saturday and Sunday at 9:30 PM on Sony Entertainment Television and Sony LIV.
