Madhuri Dixit owes her rise in Bollywood to Saroj Khan.

The actress became an overnight sensation when her song Ek Do Teen from Tezaab became a rage all over India.

Madhuri remembers the late legend, and says, 'I'm devastated and at an utter loss of words today! Sarojji was part of my journey since the beginning.'

'She taught me a lot, not just about dance, but so much more. There's a rush of memories in my head thinking of this big personal loss. My heartfelt condolences to the family.'
