The newest kid on the block, Ranbir Kapoor, has revealed that he is a big fan of Bollywood diva Madhuri Dixit.
Talking to India Times, Ranbir said “I fell in love with her when I was six and I watched her do the Ek Do Teen number in Tezaab. I’ve grown up watching her films. And every time I see her on screen, my heart starts beating dangerously fast!”
When asked if he had met Madhuri, he replied “Meeting an idol is a very tricky thing. You never know which way the meeting will go. My guru Sanjay Leela Bhansali once told me he had desisted from meeting his idol, Lata Mangeshkar, because of this fear. I was at the same studio on Thursday afternoon where Madhuriji was giving interviews. I could see and hear her from where I was shooting. This was God’s way of telling me, this was it. No more running away. I was totally tongue-tied but she said the sweetest things to me. I just kept staring at her like an idiot.”
Madhuri signed a CD of Aaja Nachle for Ranbir so he could show it off to his friends. “And that CD is now my proudest possession along with a letter from Mr Amitabh Bachchan appreciating my performance in Saawariya,” says Ranbir.
