All of Madhuri Dixit's fans are eager to hear the announcement of her film, meanwhile the actress who flew all the way from her home in Denver to Mumbai to judge the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa, seems to be in no hurry. For now, she has agreed to serve as brand ambassador for a food channel (FoodFood).
An intention
She will also be seen on Karan Johar's TV show.
The host mentioned at a filmy do that he intends to bring Mrs Nene on his chat show Koffee With Karan, wondering whom he should pair with her on his show. Since that fateful evening Karan's phone has just not stopped ringing.
Constant calls
Says a source, "Every A-Lister actress from the post-Kareena generation has called up Karan expressing a keen desire to be on the show with Madhuri.
KJo is going batty fielding all these 'Main Madhuri ke saath baithna chahti hoon' calls. So much so that now as soon as he sees a hottie's name flash on his BlackBerry, he knows what the call is about."
The Koffee host laughs, "I can't say I'm amazed by Madhuri's popularity. When I decided to invite her on my show I didn't know that her popularity seeps down right to the youngest of Bollywood.
I am very keen to bring her on with one of the younger actresses. But I really don't know whom to zero in on. It's a really tough call."
As for being on Karan Johar's chat show, Madhuri is fine with any co-guest. Just like she never minded who her co-star was Anil or Sanjay Kapoor.
Last heard, Karan had zeroed in on Sonakshi Sinha to partner Madhuri on his show.
