Aditi’s Reaction
Sparsh and Pratibha are seen walking down the corridor of the Netflix office, each holding a sunflower. They then recreate the ‘gajagamini’ walk popularized by Aditi Rao Hydari’s character Bibbojaan in the song ‘Saiyaan Hatto Jao’ from Heeramandi.
Aditi watched the video and commented, “Bibbojaan certified! “Nailed it, guys (red heart and smiley face emoticons).”
A viewer posted, “The collab of shows we didn’t know we needed! (laughing face emoticon).” A second fan commented, “Sparsh did it better!” A comment also said, “This made my day!”
More details
In an interview with Zoom TV last month, Aditi revealed how Sanjay Leela Bhansali conceptualized the entire shot down to the smallest detail. “He said that he wanted that dupatta to fall on a particular beat, the head to turn and the ‘chann’ (sound of the ghungroo) to come exactly on the beat, so it was all his thought and his creation,” she continued.
In Heeramandi, Aditi plays courtesan Bibbojaan, the elder daughter of Mallikajaan (Manisha Koirala). The Netflix series has already been renewed for a second season.
Meanwhile, Laapataa Ladies premiered on Netflix on April 26. Apart from Sparsh and Pratibha, the film also stars Nitanshi Goel and tells the story of two brides who are accidentally swapped during a train journey. It’s directed by Kiran Rao.
