Huma Qureshi: Madhuri Dixit has no airs
- IndiaGlitz, [Saturday,November 16 2013]
With her latest film ÂDedh Ishqiya Huma Qureshi is excited to share screen space with her dream star - Madhuri Dixit. But we were told that in fact itÂs her family who seems to be much more thrilled.
According to our sources, while on the sets Huma and Madhuri had a good time chatting about scenes, the weather, food, etc. My family wanted to know what she is like and what we spoke about. We have watched her movies and are big fans of Madhuri. And she is doing a film after a long time, so it was all the more special, remarked Huma. We (Madhuri and I) talked about our scenes, the weather, food, her kids etc. Despite being the star that she is, she has no airs, added Huma.
When asked if her parents would want to meet the Dhak Dhak diva, said Huma, jokingly, I'm sure they'd have loved to, but I would have been too embarrassed. My mother was curious about everything. She would grill me. I had put an embargo on them meeting her, so they might finally meet her at the premiere.
The ÂGangs of Wasseypur famed actor, who herself was in awe of her co-star, said, Though I joined the film after everyone else was cast, we bonded well. I had many scenes with her and we had a good comfort level. I'm still in awe of Madhuri. I've grown up watching her movies and to see her in a film like Dedh Ishqiya, which is quite unlike her previous work, was wonderful.
Huma even shook a leg with the original dancing queen. I thought everyone had lost it when they told me about this dance number. I asked them if they were sure about having both of us in the same frame. I'm a good dancer, but I was scared and nervous. We did Kathak and were choreographed by Remo (D'Souza), she revealed, adding that Madhuri also encouraged her. She gave me a hug before we shot, that helped, and she'd joke with me saying, 'I don't bite'.
