Saroj Khan had a career spanning over 50 years in which she choreographed over 300 films and 2000 songs.
A biopic on the life of the legendary choreographer was announced by T-Series, with Bhushan Kumar as the producer and Hansal Mehta as the director.
The story explores her tough childhood, her early entry into the film industry and her rise to becoming Bollywood’s first female choreographer. The project is designed as an episodic series and would be released on an OTT platform.
Bhushan Kumar had acquired the rights from Saroj Khan’s children Raju Khan, Sukaina Khan and her late daughter Hina Khan's daughters. The project was to go on floors in 2024 but was temporarily postponed. There were reports of reviving it once again. The makers are considering multiple actresses to play Saroj Khan across different phases of her life.
Madhuri Dixit was also reportedly approached for the same as she shared a strong professional bond with Saroj Khan for more than 30 years.
