New Delhi: It’s being pegged as the comeback of the decade and is likely to send cash registers ringing at the box office.
Actress Madhuri Dixit returning to the silver screen with Yash Raj Films’ Aaja Nachle, directed by ace cinematographer Anil Mehta.
The film, the shooting for which is currently on in Mumbai's Film City, is slated for a November 30 release.
Yash Raj Films are pegging the film, also starring Akshaye Khanna, as the one that will change their fortunes and end the year with a “big bang”.
Madhuri has already been giving enthusiastic soundbytes to the media. “What I missed was being in front of the camera and assuming various characters,” Madhuri was quoted as saying.
“Yeah I missed that, I'm glad to have it back,” she added.
“I don't miss the adulation or the glamour, though it is good to know people still miss me,” says the actress who stopped working to raise her two children.
In October 1999, Madhuri married Los Angeles-based cardiac surgeon Dr Nene. Though she never officially quit Bollywood, her long stay in Los Angeles made it impossible for her to sign many film projects in India.
