Actress Madhuri Dixit has come up with a signature step as a part of initiative "What step will you take today" for diabetic patients.
The step is aimed at instilling solidarity for patients with diabetes.
"My step to challenge diabetes is through the way I know best - dance; which I believe truly unites people. Creating awareness about its (diabetes') prevention and management is critical," Madhuri said in a statement.
"I call on my fans to join this movement with this dance step, as India is stepping up to prevent and control diabetes. Show us 'What step will you take today’," she added.
The initiative is by pharmaceutical company Sanofi India Limited to mark World Diabetes Day Nov 14.
