After a lapse of almost four decades since Aroona Irani sizzled on the screen to R.D. Burman's music "Dilbar dil se pyare" in "Caravan", the actor has agreed to boogie to the same song again for episodes of Ektaa
Kapoor's "Teen Kahaaniyan, Teen Raaz" that will be telecast Monday and Tuesday.
This time, the dance item will be choreographed by Harshal and Vitthal who have changed the steps. Another difference is that in the original version, Aroona performed the number in gypsy costumes, but this time she
has done so wearing a saree.
When we tried to confirm the news, Aroona quipped, "This was Ektaa's idea. And, of course, I couldn't say no to her. She's such a sweetheart."
Interestingly, Aroona originally performed the 'Dilbar' number
with Ektaa's father Jeetendra. Reminiscing those good old days of Bollywood, Aroona says that she was very fond of Jeetendra's wife Shobha and met her occasionally when she came to the studios either to drop in to
meet her husband.
Now the veteran actress is acting in Ektaa Kapoor's long-running television serial "Kahani Ghar Ghar Ki" and claims it to be one of her most interesting roles.
