The stars have been camping at a five-star hotel in the state capital for the past few days.
Joining them at the hotel, Birju Maharaj confirmed that he would be directing the dance steps of Madhuri Dixit after a gap of several years.
He had earlier choreographed Madhuri Dixit in Devdaas and Dil to Pagal Hai.
Expressing happiness at the assignment, he said it was "always a delight to direct good dancers like Madhuri as they catch up with dance steps fast and are involved in dance".
Birju Maharaj's dance steps were recently seen in Vishvaroop, where Kamal Hassan was seen dancing to his tunes.
The Padam Vibhushan award winner would also be performing in the city at the second convocation function of the Bhatkhande Music Sansthan (university) Wednesday.
