Actress Alia Bhatt, who features in a reprised version of the 1990s’ iconic hit number ‘Tamma Tamma’, says stepping into the shoes of Madhuri Dixit who grooved to the original track is an impossible job.



Alia features in the new ‘Tamma Tamma’ with Varun Dhawan, and the song is for their upcoming movie ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhani’. “I am not trying to step into Madhuri Dixit’s shoes.



That is a totally impossible task,” Alia said at the song’s launch here on Saturday.



“I was very nervous when we went to show her (Madhuri) the song and had nightmares before shooting the song. However, I, Varun and Bosco (of Bosco-Caesar), we had an agenda that we must not recreate the song. It would be a tribute from us,” she added.



Recently, Varun and Alia had shared a video on their social media accounts. There, they could be seen learning the dance steps from Madhuri. About Madhuri’s reaction to the new version, Varun said, “We already got thumbs up from both Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt.



Even Bappi da (Bappi Lahiri), who is the original creator of the song, when he gave his blessings, we were fired up.”
