She has proven that she can rock the iconic tracks with her brilliant charisma. Recreating one of the most iconic numbers in Bollywood which was immortalised by the dancing diva Madhuri Dixit, Jacqueline Fernandez is all set to spread her charm once again.

The popular 'Tezaab' track, 'Ek Do Teen' was choreographed by veteran choreographer Saroj Khan.

He further added, "It's an all-time favourite and I have asked Ganesh to retain Sarojji's famous hook steps and Manish Malhotra to keep Madhuri Dixit's pink outfit in mind while designing Jacqueline's costume. I want the same feel of the earlier song that still looms large on everyone's mind and also the same vibe, with the crowds chanting ‘Mohini, Mohini' as Madhuri takes the stage".

While expressing his thoughts on Jacqueline slipping into Madhuri Dixit's shoes, Ahmed Khan said,"She's the perfect choice".
