Sooraj Barjatya, deeply moved by the performance, says, “You have done complete justice to the song. This song was made for Karisma, but I was really stressed about Mohnish. The choreography was meant for all three couples, and after Hum Aapke Hain Koun, it was Mohnish’s turn to dance. Since our team choreographed it, we suggested excusing Mohnish because his character had to keep one hand down. So, he stepped back, and Tabu took over most of the dance. But Karisma made up for it beautifully with her effortless grace.”
Mohnish Bahl laughs and adds, “He was worried about me at first, but after seeing my dance, he started worrying about himself! That’s when he decided I should keep one hand behind my back (laughs).”
He then asks Karisma Kapoor, “Lolo, do you remember the Mhare Hiwda Mein Nache Mor shoot? We were sitting on an elephant in the scorching Rajasthan heat! Once we got up there, we couldn’t come down because elephants don’t just squat on command. We were stuck—no water, nothing, because of the height. At one point, I thought, ‘If I faint, I faint!’ Meanwhile, Karisma and Tabu kept dancing.”
Karisma Kapoor nods, recalling the struggle. “It was quite tough. On screen, it looks like we’re having the best time, and everything appears so grand and beautiful. But in reality, the elephant kept moving, and we had to sit there for almost 2–3 hours!”
Indian Iddol 15 airs every weekend at 8:30 pm, and the show is judged by Badshah, Shreya Ghoshal, and Vishal Dadlani.
