Maddy wants a Dabangg with Sallu
After working with perfectionist Aamir Khan in 3 Idiots, R Madhavan wishes to work with Salman Khan.
Talking about Salman, whom he fondly likes to call Salman bhai, Maddy says, "I love Salman bhai's style. He was amazing in Wanted and Dabangg and I would love to work with him in a film like Dabangg. I and Salman bhai will make a great team."
Not many know that Maddy and Salman have hit it off very well after the South superstar appeared on Bigg Boss 4 to promote his Hindi film Tanu Weds Manu. Madhavan was also on Salman's guest list for a party he threw at his Panvel farmhouse post the reality show's grand finale.
However, Salman's not the only star Maddy wishes to work with. Megastar Rajinikanth also appears on his wish list. Ask him about the actresses he wants to work with and pat comes the reply. "Deepika Padukone. She is beautiful and she is turning into a very fine actress. I would also like to work with Katrina Kaif."
The actor has teamed up with some of the best of directors in his career so far, which has resulted into an admirable body of work. But Maddy has his career path carved out clearly and he knows which directors he should work with for the kind of movies he wants to do. Though Rajkumar Hirani remains his favourite after 3 Idiots, Madhavan wishes to work with the likes of Imtiaz Ali, Karan Johar, Anurag Kashyap and Dibakar Banerjee. "I liked Imtiaz' Love Aaj Kal and I feel Karan Johar is making some great films. I also liked Dibakar's Khosla Ka Ghosla. Anurag Kashyap's kind of cinema also attracts me," he signed off.

I expected Krushna to be wild card entry: Chang
Meiyang Chang is a great singer, a decent actor and now also an accomplished dancer too. We got to see an entirely new side of Chang on the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa and he has never failed to surprise us with his potential. Once again he has scored a perfect 30 on the show and is rearing to go. In an exclusive conversation with Gaurav Malani , Chang speaks about dancing, acting, singing and more.
You have scored a 'perfect 30' yet again this week on Jhalak.
The theme for this week was that each contestant was to use a prop in their performance and we were given a box and were asked to perform out of the box. It was a real challenge for us on how to use a regular prop like a box in an innovative way and like the theme itself says 'out-of-the-box', we had to come up with something absolutely different. Our choreography was simple yet effective and the judges were unanimously impressed which got us a perfect 30 score. I would give the entire credit of my score to my choreographer Maricha.
Tell us how was Chang as a dancer before Jhalak...
Before Jhalak I had no idea on how to dance. The last time I might have danced was in Class 6. But I always had great respect for people who could dance and looked up to them as wonderful personalities. When I decided to be a part of Jhalak, the idea was just to try my best and go with the flow. But over the episodes I have enhanced by creativity. Unlike singing or acting, dancing demands a flair for multitasking. You have to perform your steps and at the same time take care of your posture and give the correct expression. Doing all of them together is a beautiful effort and I am enjoying that.
Do you think the competition has become tougher after the wild card entry?
Wild card entry always has a huge advantage because someone gets a second chance. They have already faced elimination before so they don't exactly have the fear ! of rejec tion. Also the participants come back with a lot of vengeance and have that fire in them to prove in the second chance that they have got. So wild card can certainly be daunting.
I was very sure that Yana and Salman would come back because they are fantastic dancers. But for the second wild card entry, I expected Krushna Abhishek to come back over Ankita Lokhande.
Who is your strongest competitor on the show as of now?
At the cost of sounding prudent, I would like to say that this is the best season of Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa for it has such seasoned dancers and performers who are working really hard. I guess Sushant and Yana are my strongest opponents.
The pressure might have gone up with the competition getting tough...
Certainly! Initially we used to take things lightly and our rehearsals were only five hour long. But as the competition became tougher, we had to give more time and energy to our acts. Unlike others, I have this advantage that I don't work on a daily soap. So I can give more time to my acts. But then Sushant and Yana have the advantage that they have good choreographers. I have a superb choreographer but I am not as natural dancer like they are and have to put more efforts.
You haven't done any film post Badmaash Company
I have been getting roles similar to Badmaash Company and I don't see any fun doing that. I am not in hurry and don't mind waiting for the right offer. I want to balance between singing, dancing and acting.
You haven't tried your luck with many reality shows either though they have been lucky for you.
I will not do any reality show because I want to be in limelight and earn money. I have been offered several reality shows but I have been extremely choosy. In fact, I have no idea why I have been offered comedy reality shows because I suck at comedy. I will not do any more singing reality shows. I will not do any more dance reality! shows. But I have kept my window of choice open.
Any particular reality show that you would love to participate in?
I would love to do Fear Factor . In fact after the kind of grueling sessions and hard work we have put in for Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa , I guess every participant on Jhalak is prepared for Fear Factor .
