Madhuri Dixit took to her Instagram account to pen down a heartfelt note for the late Bollywood choreographer, she wrote, “I still can’t believe master ji is no more. Losing a friend, philosopher & guide like her is devastating. It was difficult for me to put down my grief in words. I had spoken to her daughter when she was in the hospital & she told me that Saroj ji would be fine. Two days later, she was gone.⁣⁣  The Guru-shishya bond that we shared, the assurance that she would be my mother on the sets, I’ll miss everything. Today on the occasion of Guru Purnima, I pay my tribute to her. (sic)⁣”

She continued praising Saroj for her excellent skills, “Nobody can make women look so beautiful, desirable & sensuous on-screen like her. She made everything look like poetry in motion. Smitten by her, I had told her, “Saroji ji, agar aap shakkar hoti na, I would add you in my cup of tea & drink it. She would laugh heartily at this. I’ll miss that playful laughter.⁣ Saroj Khan was a game changer in the industry. She was the rebel in the male-dominated profession. There were rough edges to her personality & I feel that’s because life had been pretty uneven to her. I’ll miss that determined & headstrong woman.(sic)⁣⁣”
