Before this, Ankita Lokhande shared a video of herself and Madhuri Dixit grooving to the iconic song Ek Do Teen on the sets of Dance Deewane. Ankita was invited as a guest along with her husband, Vicky Jain on the dance reality show. Sharing the video on Instagram, Ankita wrote, "A dream came true ... Her grace is a dance of elegance, and her smile, a glimpse into a world of joy. As I watch her, and get an opportunity to dance with her, I'm reminded that true artistry goes beyond skill-it's about evoking emotions and leaving a lasting impression. Thank you, Madhuri Ma'am for being a constant source of inspiration, not just as a phenomenal artist but as a symbol of grace and authenticity. Here's to the timeless allure of Madhuri Dixit a muse forever etched in our hearts." Ankita signed off her post by referring to the 2003 film Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon! She said, "Main Madhuri Dixit banana chahti hu!!!! I love you Madhuri [Dixit] ma'am." FYI: Ek Do Teen is a much-loved track from the 1988 film Tezaab featuring Madhuri Dixit and Anil Kapoor in lead roles.
