Bollywood films are known for their grand dance numbers and musical performances. For example, Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s Devdas starring Shahrukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Madhuri Dixit in the lead roles had great dance performances that saw the two of the most beautiful actresses come together on the big screen. This would not have been possible with Saroj Khan choreographing one of the most iconic songs in Hindi cinema with Dola Re Dola.
