Veteran actress Tanuja talked about her popular track `Raat Akeli Hain` from the 1967 film `Jewel Thief` which was sung by Asha Bhosle and picturised on late superstar Dev Anand and herself.
She recalled how she did the choreography for the song and said: “Despite the dance master`s best efforts, Dev Anand Sahab was unable to learn the dance steps. I also asked them, how would the choreography look on screen if I am the one who will be only dancing, not Dev Anand sahab.”
Tanuja is known for her marvelous work in movies such as `Baharen Phir Bhi Aayengi` in which she played the role of younger sister of famous actress Mala Sinha, she played the female lead opposite superstar Rajesh Khanna in the blockbuster film `Haathi Mere Saathi`, and she was also seen opposite late Sanjeev Kumar in Basu Battacharya`s `Anubhav` based on marital issues and complications.
During the singing reality show, she was reminiscing about her shooting days with Dev Anand from the sets of `Jewel Thief`.
“As a result, we all sat there discussing how we would go about doing this. Later, all of the choreographers agreed that since I was familiar with the step, I could make it a little easier for Dev Sahab. Hence, they asked me to choreograph the song however I wanted. The main idea to choreograph this song was that I wanted to have fun while shooting, and I must say, I did,” she added.
