This isn’t the first time SRK and Madhuri have shared the stage, but their chemistry remains as electric as ever. Madhuri once revealed in an interview how the duo longed to work together in a romantic film after starring in thrillers like Koyla and Anjaam. “We were always running around in dirty clothes or beating each other up,” she joked, adding that their wish came true when Yash Chopra offered them Dil To Pagal Hai.
