Jacqueline Fernandez Pays Tribute To Madhuri Dixit With New 'Ek Do Teen' Version

Actress Jacqueline Fernandez says she has tried to pay tribute to Bollywood's dancing diva Madhuri Dixit Nene through her version of foot-tapping number Ek do teen in Baaghi 2.

Asked if there was any pressure when she first heard that she was going to recreate Madhuri's iconic song, Jacqueline said, "I think that was my first stress that how can we recreate something so iconic like 'is it even possible'. It made a lot easier for me when I understood that it's not possible, we are not trying to match up to what Madhuri Dixit and Saroj (Khan) ji did. For me as an actress, this is such an honour and a lot of my actress friends were like, 'we are so jealous that you doing 'Ek do teen'. So for any girl this would be a dream song to do."

"I have connected with Madhuri ji. We will be chatting little more about how the song went once it done because right now, I am under lot of stress. My only focus over the past week has been this one song and of course, they (Madhuri and Saroj Khan) will be the first persons to whom we will show the song. We have already taken their blessings," Jacqueline said.

The actress also said that she feels blessed to get an opportunity to dance on the foot-tapping number from the 1988 film Tezaab for the upcoming movie.

Baaghi 2, starring Tiger Shroff, is the sequel to the 2016 film Baaghi. The film, which also stars Disha Patani, will release on March 30.
