“Dancing on ‘Maar Daala’ Was a Surreal Tribute to Madhuri Dixit”: Rose Sardana on Her New Track in Indian Institute of Zombies

Mumbai: Actor Rose Sardana, who was recently seen sharing screen space with Madhuri Dixit in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, is set to offer fans another special connection to her long-time idol. Her upcoming track ‘Maar Daala’ in the film Indian Institute of Zombies is a modern, western-dance reinterpretation of the legendary number that Madhuri originally immortalised.
While the original Devdas classic is known for its traditional mujra style and Madhuri’s breathtaking performance, Rose’s version brings a fresh, contemporary edge. Packed with fluid movements, sharp choreography and a distinctly western energy, the song stands as a respectful nod to the timeless original, while introducing a new visual flavour to a younger audience.For Rose, the track is more than just a performance, it is a deeply personal tribute. Having recently worked with Madhuri Dixit in Bhool Bhulaiya 3, the experience made this moment even more meaningful. Rose further shares, “Madhuri Dixit has been my ultimate inspiration for as long as I can remember. I recently had the honour of working with her in Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, and even being on the same set felt unreal. ‘Maar Daala’ is a song I grew up watching in pure awe. Getting to perform on it now, in my own way, felt surreal. Our version is very different; more western, more experimental; but every move came from a place of respect and admiration for the magic she created in the original. This is my humble ode to her.”
