Reports also stated the producer will soon start the process of pre-production on this remake. Now, the film’s lead actress has reacted to the news.
During a recent conversation with Pinkvilla, Madhuri Dixit-Nene was asked about Murad Khetani’s remaking of her and Anil Kapoor’s 1988 action-romance film Tezaab. Revealing her excitement for the upcoming project, the actress stated, “I don’t know. I have to see the movie, then I’ll be excited.”
Madhuri Dixit-Nene further added, “Well, I think if he is touching it then he has that confidence that he is doing something different. It’s an art form, and it’s open for interpretation. So if he has another form or another interpretation of Tezaab, and has the confidence to make it then I am looking forward to seeing it.”

The Kalank actress said, “I am so happy people are saying there is much more to come as that encourages me also to say, ‘yes, people have faith in me’. 35 years plus career and they are still saying that there is so much more to come and they have that faith and confidence in me, that always helps an artist feel better.”
She added, “I will try to reach for the moon because when you get an appreciation you feel like, ‘Oh my God, I got to do something more.’”
