The new version of the much-loved song Ami Je Tomar from Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3 has finally been released and director Anees Bazmee shared his amazing experience working with stars Vidya Balan and Madhuri Dixit. The original song has a special place in Indian cinema, and Bazmee wanted to create something that would live up to its legacy.
Sharing his initial thoughts, Bazmee mentioned that choreographer Chinni Prakash felt a lot of pressure to make the dance extraordinary. He said, “Choreographer Chinni Prakash was extremely tense when I told him about the song. He said he had to do something extraordinary to go beyond everyone’s expectations since it’s an already iconic song. He expertly crafted a mesmerizing blend of classical dance forms, showcasing both so beautifully.”
He continued, “When the shooting started, the most difficult part was calling ‘cut,’ as both Madhuri ji and Vidya ji were so mesmerizing throughout that we didn’t want to cut the magic they were creating on set. The whole set was in awe; even the light man forgot everything and was so engrossed in watching them. Those five days of shooting were an unforgettable experience for the whole crew. Thanks to Bhushan ji for such a grand and magnificent set.”
Reflecting on the editing process, Bazmee admitted to a unique challenge: “It came out so beautifully that it became very tough for me to decide which part to edit and which should be kept. But I decided to keep the whole song without cutting or editing any part of it. Words will fall short to describe these two legends and the kind of magic they created. I’m so thankful!”

At the song launch, Madhuri Dixit expressed her excitement about the song, stating, “This song is iconic because of Vidya ji. I really loved the song and also enjoyed Bhool Bhulaiyaa 2. When I met Anees ji, I told him how much I liked the film. When they approached me for this project, I loved the script. I’ve always admired Anees ji’s films and his directorial style, and Bhushan ji is a fantastic producer. I knew this would be a great ensemble.”
Vidya Balan added, “I had a wonderful time shooting. Anees ji is the king of entertainment! It was such a blast filming this song.”
With Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, audiences will witness a powerful ensemble, including Kartik Aaryan, Vidya Balan, Madhuri Dixit Nene, and Triptii Dimri, uniting for the first time. The film is set to release on November 1.
