Madhuri Dixit Biography
Madhuri Dixit made a humble beginning with the Rajshris. The film was called Abodh and had the then Tollywood (Calcutta) superstar Tapash Pal cast as her hero.
The
film bombed and Madhuri's future in Bollywood did not seem too bright.
Filmmaker Subhash Ghai wasn't detracted though. He always said that
Madhuri had the potential to be the number one and maintained at that.
Ghai did not give up on the Maharashtrian beauty and re-introduced her in Ram Lakhan. The film succeeded in exposing Madhuri's beauty and people dubbed her as the reincarnation of Madhubala.
The film that cut the ice and established Madhuri in the big league was N Chandra's Tezaab.
The film was a huge success and the Saroj Khan-choreographed 'Ek do
teen' entered the hallmark of extremely popular dance numbers. The item
with a liberal dose of jhatkas not only propelled Madhuri towards stardom, it also established Saroj Khan as a hot dance director.
After Tezaab,
producers and directors waited for months to let Madhuri's dates
coincide with Saroj's. Meanwhile, Subhash Ghai was still carving out a
strategy to present Madhuri as the successor to the then reigning queen
Sridevi. Khalnayak fulfilled his dream. Madhuri became the next super girl with 'Choli ke peeche'.
Madhuri
still reins but marriage has made changes in her list of priorities.
She has cut down on her assignments and spends more time with her
medico husband based in Los Angeles.
