Rekha reacts when asked where is Jadoo?

Well, years before James Cameron's science fiction epic movie, Avatar had introduced the world to the blue-hued humanoid, Rakesh Roshan, who had stunned the Indian masses with the skinned alien, 'Jadoo'. In the movie, Koi.. Mil Gaya, 'Jadoo' was Hrithik's best friend, and his character was healed unexpectedly. When Rekha was asked by the paps, "Jadoo kaha hai jadoo", she looked at Hrithik's face, and made a circular action remarking that he was Jadoo. Their fans were excited to see the most epic reunion, as Rekha, Hrithik and Rakesh posed together for the paps.

Many viral clips from the success party of, The Roshans went viral. Rekha was seen in her new look, with a black dress, her head covered with a towel-like white shawl that had a scarf-like appearance on her neck. Her black dress had oversized white ruffled sleeves. She teamed up her outfit with white dhoti pants, black heels, black shades and bright red lipstick.

Did you know the character of 'Jadoo' was played by Indravadan Purohit?

Indravadan Purohit, a.k.a, 'Chhote Ustad', had done more than 300 movies and was a part of shows like Baal Veer, where he essayed 'Dooba Dooba' and was also seen in Taarak Mehta Ka Ooltah Chashmah. He had played 'Dayaben's' faraway relative. Reportedly, Rakesh always wanted to keep Indravadan away from the limelight for reasons best known to him. As per an India Times report, Rakesh offered 'Jadoo's' role to around 30-40 folks before Indravadan was called for the screen test.

How Indravadan Purohit prepared for 'Jadoo'?

Purohit reportedly lost many kilos to prepare for the character, 'Jadoo'. He had enrolled in a gym and followed a strict diet regime. The mask of Jadoo was so heavy for the actor that he had to take oxygen post-shooting every scene in order to avoid suffocation. James Callner and Lara, an Australian couple designed the costume for Jadoo. During an interview with the Hindustan Times, Hrithik said:

"During shoot we would often take about 4 to 6 hours to shoot a single scene with Jaadoo as the eyes and hands had to be manually synced, to bounce back the emotions that were being exhibited in the scene. So it was a tedious task, retakes after retakes, but Papa ensured that by the end of each day we had a shot that perfectly synced."
