This is the first time Ranbir will be sharing screen space with his childhood idol-cum-crush Madhuri Dixit. Dancing diva Madhuri Dixit will be seen matching footsteps with Ranbir Kapoor in his forthcoming flick, Ye Jawani Hai Deewani.
The song choreographed by Farah Khan will have Madhuri familiarizing the character played by Ranbir in the film. Madhuri has shot an item song for the Ayan Mukherjee directed film. A source told, "Ayan, Karan Johar, Ranbir want to ensure that Madhuri's debut in Dharma Productions would be just right."
"He had a crush on her when his dad worked with Madhuri in Sahibaan, Prem Granth, and Yaraana. He would go on the sets simply to watch her. They have to make sure the number turns out just the way audiences expect it to," the insider adds.
The song will reunite Farah and Madhuri, who had worked together in Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam, way back in 2002.
Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani also stars Deepika Padukone, Kalki Koechlin and Aditya Roy Kapoor in pivotal roles and is panned to release on May 31.
