All eyes are on Janhvi Kapoor -- daughter of the iconic Sridevi whose demise earlier this year left a huge void in the Indian film industry -- as she steps into Bollywood with her maiden film "Dhadak" on July 20. The young actress says she wishes to bring back the magic of magnetic talents like Madhubala, Meena Kumari and Waheeda Rehman on the silver screen.

"I have watched Madhubalaji in films like 'Mughal-e-Azam', 'Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi' and 'Mr & Mrs 55'. I have seen the beautiful Waheedaji in 'Guide', 'Pyaasa', Meena Kumariji in 'Pakeezah', 'Sahib Bibi Aur Ghulam'. Watching them, I get fascinated and mesmerised. "I so wish to (re)create the magic of these legends on-screen. Every time I watch these films, I get motivated and tell myself, 'Mujhe yeh karna hai (I want to do this)'... This magic, this performance," said the 21-year-old, whose eyes lit up during an interview with IANS.
