1995 film Raja featuring the stars of Bollywood cinema, Sanjay Kapoor and Madhuri Dixit completes 26 years today! With such a nostalgic and emotional moment, Sanjay Kapoor took it to his Instagram, with a video, “Kisi Din Banoongi Main Raja” and expressed how he felt working with Madhuri Dixit.
The actor wrote, “26 years of Raja… Time flies…We started shooting for Raja with this song in Ooty, Zara Phir Se Kehna was the first shot I gave, I cannot thank Madhuri enough for making me so comfortable on set never felt I was working with a super superstar, What a super team we had,”
Madhuri Dixit started her acting career 10 years before Sanjay Kapoor in the film Abodh in 1984. So, practically while shooting for Raja, Madhuri Dixit was already a superstar by then with her back-to-back hit films.
The film was directed and co-produced by Indra Kumar. In the film, Sanjay Kapoor played the role of Raja and Madhuri played the role of Madhu. The story spined with the love alliance between Raja and Madhu; where Madhu’s brothers didn’t accept Madhu and Raja’s relationship; and how they tried to tear them apart but failed in front of true love. We also saw Paresh Rawal playing a pivotal role in the film, he portrayed the role of the elderly brother to Raja, Brijnath Patangwala.
