I wish you only good health & happiness!” Madhuri had penned, along with rare and unseen pictures of her mother. ack in 2013, Madhuri’s mother had joined her to record a song for ‘Gulab Gang’. Narrating the incident, filmmaker Anubhav Sinha had told IANS, “When we approached Madhuri to sing a song in the film, she happily agreed to do so. When she came for the recording, she came with her mom and we discovered her mom is a very good singer. So we asked her mom if she could sing a song. Eventually, we got both Madhuri and her mom to sing a song in the film.”
