He continued... "and much later in 2014 when i got a chance to host for the first time at IIFA, the only reason i took it up was they said you get to spend a day with Madhuri Dixit and i don't know if she remembers it.. when we went to [Madhuri nods in yes! we went to a dance school and the american kids danced to your songs and..  Thank you so much inspiring a random kid to take up performing arts and i feel the countless number of hours i spent to 'tu shayar hai' has finally borne fruit and to get this recognition from you means truly a lot." And when finishing the speech he was handing over the mic back to Rithvik, Madhuri from behind offered to do Nakuul's favorite step with him.

The fans love the beautiful video and showering Nakuul with good wishes and congratulatory messages. Nakuul has also in the past expressed his love for Madhuri when he shared a picture of a Madhuri Dixit performing the same step which was presented to him on a show. He had written in text sharing the picture- "This had gotto take the centre space in my living room.. Thank you @abishmathew for making this dream of mine a reality. #madhuricomeshome [heart emoji]". Madhuri Dixit-fan Nakuul Mehta's Insta story Nakuul had said in an interview- "Watching Madhuri Dixit dance to Ek Do Teen and songs from Saajan made me want to be as graceful and smooth a dancer. Strangely enough, she led me to pick up dance as a six-year-old. However, it was training with Shiamak (Davar), Terence (Lewis) and Sandip Soparrkar that eventually further propelled my interest in dancing." And before you leave,  here's a look at the original 'Saajan' song 'Tu Shayar Hai' in which magical Madhuri won nation's heart back in 1991:
