Bollywood actress Madhoo who played lead roles in Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu and Tamil cinema in the 90s has revisited her statement about declining the role of Ajay Devgn's mother, if offered. In a recent interview, she negated her previous statement and said that she would take it up as a challenge. 

In an interview with Zoom, Madhoo clarified her earlier statement. "That statement was taken out of context. I said if, hypothetically… I am correcting myself now because I have evolved as an actor. I made the statement 2-3 years ago, in some other context. In the 2-3 years, I have realized I have played many different roles. I played an apsara [fairy] in Shakuntalam with Samantha [Ruth Prabhu]… So when I play, as an actor, actually I am enjoying the liberty and freedom of being an actor today. Back in the 90s, we were put in a box. We romanced, we sang, we danced. But now, with OTT, stories and content, I think that is kind of broken away. A lot of great opportunities are coming for every actor.”
