Angoori Bhabhi, from Bhabiji Ghar Par Hain, who herself is a trained dancer says Saroj Khan was guruji for almost every star. “If not personally, virtually we all learned many dance steps from her songs.

No one can take her place.”
Meghna Naidu who was also a part of the reality show Dancing Queen says, “We lost a legend. A woman who turned actors into stars. A lady who made songs iconic because of the videos and they way she choreographed nit. A master who taught most of our actresses about expressions. I’m sad that I never got a chance to work with her. But my first song Kaliyon Ka Chaman was directed by her son Raju Khan so in a way I had her blessing.”

Guruji was a smiling face yet very strict. I still remember she scolded me when she was choreopgraphing us for a performance in the show along with Mallika Sherawat. I was a non dancer then and today I don’t fear dancing. Her scolding turned into a blessing for me, such was aura of our dancing queen”.
