this isnt really that old this is just mads views abt wat happened kind of lol

MUMBAI (Reuters) - "Aaja Nachle" turned out to be a resounding failure and its director holds the media responsible - for harping on Madhuri Dixit's comeback but ignoring the film's theme.

Even the film's reviews dealt only with the superstar's acting prowess and dancing skills, said Anil Mehta.

"Madhuri was surely the face of the film and with she making a comeback all eyes was bound to be on her," the filmmaker said.

"But I'm disappointed that media completely neglected the point 'Aaja Nachle' had tried to convey."

Mehta feels the film's twin themes of women as breadwinners and the importance of art were overshadowed by the media's obsession with Dixit's comeback.

But not without reason.

In her prime, Dixit was the undisputed queen of Bollywood and when she decided to return after a six-year break that saw her getting married and having two children, anticipation was bound to be high.

Her much-hyped role saw the 42-year-old actress play a divorced New York-based choreographer who returns to India to save a theatre from demolition.

"The film wanted to show how art is important for reviving our soul that is trapped in consumerist existence where people are only existing and not living their lives," said Mehta.

But the Dixit magic wasn't enough to pull the film through and "Aaja Nachle" sank at the box-office.

"I thought I had made a good enjoyable film but sadly there were not many takers for it."

But i really dont see why it was such a flop i luved the movie!

I agree...I loved the film! Madz was gorgeous as ever...although the choreography was a let down!!!

yes exatly^^ It was a good movie..it had great songs n ofcourse madhuri was lookin like her usual self GORGEOUS 😳 and i dont agree with the choreography it wasn't that bad..well i only liked the title song (8) Aaja nachle nachle meri yaar toh nachle(8)!!!

^^^^ That's the choreography that was bad along with show me your jalwa....Vaibhavi could've done much better especially in the title song! I heard she was criticized and put down badly after people saw that song! She did much better in JBJ!

Now new generation has come up and many don't even know about her. It's ok. She is nor in the news and does not live in India either. She left movies when she was almost outsted by Aish. I mean I did not want to see her movie either. But from promos spice was missing in her and she is mom too. She cannot be like before. But she is very grounded person and I like her.

Althouhg I felt jovial for Kajol and will feel for Sridevi too.
