Early life[edit source | edit beta] 

Madhuri Dixit is a native of  Mumbai, India. She was born Madhuri Shankar Dixit to Shankar and

Snehlata Dixit, of a Marathi Hindu family. Dixit attended Divine Child High School

and Mumbai University and studied to be a microbiologist.[7]

 She is a

trained Kathak  dancer [8]

 and a great admirer of it.[9]

 

Film career [edit source | edit beta] 

1984 – 87: Early roles[edit source | edit beta] 

Dixit made her acting debut in Rajshri Productions' movie  Abodh in 1984 opposite the Bengali

actor, Tapas Paul. The film failed but Dixit earned positive reviews from critics. Aakash Barvalia

on Gomolo praised her as he wrote "Madhuri excels in her role as a young naive bride who

acquits herself well as the naive village girl and does not realize what marriage actuallyentails."

[10] Her only release of 1985 was  Awara Baap that turned out to be another failure for 

Dixit.

In 1986, Dixit starred in two movies, Swati and  Manav Hatya  but both films flopped at the box

office. Dixit had three releases in 1987 with  Mohre,  Hifazat  and Uttar Dakshin  but her films

continued to flop at the box office.

1988 – 89: Breakthrough[edit source | edit beta] 

Dixit finally attained stardom after a series of consecutive flops when she landed the lead female

role of Mohini in  N. Chandra's blockbuster  Tezaab opposite Anil Kapoor . The film went on to become that year's highest grossing movie.

[11] It was Dixit's first hit at the box office. Akshay

Shah of Planet Bollywood praised Dixit for her dancing skills and her acting was also noticed.

He wrote "Mahduri Dixit gives a fine tuned performance. Though she is more remembered for 

her crowd pleasing dance act Ek Do Teen, her acting needs to be noted, specially in the scenes

where she is pitted against Anupam Kher. She looks and dances like a dream."[12]

 Dixit received

her first nomination for the Filmfare Best Actress Award for her work inTezaab.

In 1989, her first release was Subhash Ghai's movie  Ram Lakhan, in which she was paired once

again with Anil Kapoor. The film became a super-hit and went on to become the second highestgrossing film of the year .

[13] Dixit's next release  Prem Pratigyaa, in which she starred

opposite Mithun Chakraborty, earned her second nomination for the Filmfare Best Actress

Award. Thereafter Dixit got success in Rajiv Rai's multi-starrer  Tridev, in which she starred

opposite  Naseeruddin Shah, Jackie Shroff , Sunny Deol, Sangeeta Bijlani, Sonam and Amrish

Puri. Dixit was paired with Deol. The movie became the year's third highest grossing film but

7/29/2019 Madhuri Dixit

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/madhuri-dixit 3/15

Dixit did not get much acting. Dixit continued her success with her third pairing with Anil

Kapoor inVidhu Vinod Chopra's  Parinda. Although Dixit's work was limited, she earned critical

acclaim. Aniket Joshi has praised her as he wrote "Madhuri Dixit, the only female character in

the film, has a small role as Paro (Karan´s love interest and Prakash´s sister) yet still does well in

the few scenes she has."[14] 

1990 – 99: Superstardom[edit source | edit beta] 

In 1990, Dixit starred in the super-hit  Dil  opposite Aamir Khan. She played the role of a rich and

arrogant girl who falls in love with a poorer boy and later leaves her house to marry him. The

film became the biggest box-office hit of the year in India[15]

and Dixit's performance earned her 

the first Filmfare Best Actress Award of her career.

After the success of  Dil , Dixit became one of the top actresses of Bollywood. The following year 

she starred in the super-hit movie Saajan opposite Salman Khan and Sanjay Dutt. The movie

 became the year's highest-grossing movie. Dixit's performance earned her the fourth nomination

for the Filmfare Best Actress Award.[16]

 

In 1992, Dixit featured in the blockbuster   Beta opposite Anil Kapoor .[17]

 Dixit's performance of 

Saraswati, a woman married to an illiterate, well-meaning man who exposes her scheming

mother-in-law earned her critical acclaim. Upperstall.com praised Dixit's work "She made Beta

her own film totally stealing a march over the film's hero, Anil Kapoor. While the highlight of 

the film was undoubtedly Dhak Dhak Karne Laga – probably the sexiest and most popular dance

of Madhuri's career, her blazing performance – that of a woman married to an illiterate, well-

meaning man and who exposes her scheming mother-in-law whom her husband dotes on – had

film reviewers gushing with several people jokingly saying the film should have been called Beti

instead!"[18]

 Dixit's performance in Beta won her a second Filmfare Best Actress Award.

Following the film's success, Dixit became famously known as the "Dhak Dhak Girl" for her 

 performance in the famous song "Dhak Dhak Karne Laga".

In 1993, Dixit starred in the controversial super-hit  Khalnayak  opposite Sanjay Dutt and Jackie

Shroff . Her portrayal of the police officer Ganga earned her critical acclaim. Shahid Khan of 

Planet Bollywood praised Dixit's dancing and acting skills in the movie "In any other film, the

heroine would not have much to do with a plot like this. So immense is the star-power of 

Madhuri Dixit that Subhash Ghai actually carved out a solid role for her in this macho tale of a

 bad boy and his shenanigans. She gives real competition to Sanjay Dutt. The audiences ran in

their droves to witness the Madhuri Dixit magic. In every scene, she holds you captive with her 

stunning beauty, demanding screen presence, expressive acting and excellent dancing skills.

Saroj Khan’s dance choreography is entertaining to watch, particularly in ―Choli Ke Peeche Kya

7/29/2019 Madhuri Dixit

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/madhuri-dixit 4/15

Hai‖. Madhuri’s entrance is a riot with a prison inmate asking her, ―Kaisi aurat hai tu? (What

kind of a woman are you?)‖ and she responds by slapping her and saying, ―Aisi aurat hoon main!

(This is the kind of woman I am!)‖."[19]

 Dixit's performance in Khalnayak earned her a sixth

nomination for the Filmfare Best Actress Award and became the year's second highest grossing

film.[20] 

In 1994, Dixit starred in  Anjaam, being paired with Shahrukh Khan for the first time. Dixit's

 performance of a revenge-seeking wife and mother earned her a seventh nomination for the

Filmfare Best Actress Award. Dixit was praised for her performance, though the film was a

 below average performer at the box office. Her next starring role was in the all-time

 blockbuster   Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! opposite Salman Khan. The film became one of the

 biggest hits in the history of Hindi cinema and made 135 crore worldwide, breaking the record

of the film Sholay (1975). It became the highest grossing Bollywood film in Hindi cinema

history after its theatrical run and held the record for 7 years till the release of  Gadar: Ek Prem Katha (2001). Dixit's role of a modern yet family-oriented young girl fetched her the third

Filmfare Best Actress Award of her career. Critics believed the film to be "too sweet" but

appreciated Dixit's performance as she mesmerized on the screen.[21]

In the Millenium Edition of 

the "Guinness Book of World Records", Hum Aapke Hain Kaun became the Bollywood's highest

grossing film.[22]

 Upperstall.com wrote "Madhuri Dixit, reunited with the banner that launched

her, stands out and is undoubtedly the life of the film as Nisha. Be it the mischievous but strong-

minded, independent girl who gives it to Prem as good as she gets or the woman willing to

sacrifice her love believing she is doing the right thing, Madhuri is absolutely spot on creating

one of the more memorable female characters of Hindi Cinema."[23]

 

1995 saw Dixit star in the hit  Raja opposite Sanjay Kapoor . The film became the fourth highest

grosser of the year and the success of the film was attributed to her immense popularity.[24]

 Her 

next release was David Dhawan's Yaraana oppositeRishi Kapoor , in which she played a dancer 

on the run from her abusive lover. This film was a below average performer at the box office.

Both films earned her nominations for the Filmfare Best Actress Award.

Dixit's career went into a slump during 1996 as many of her films like  Prem

Granth and  Rajkumar  flopped at the box office. In 1997, Dixit bounced back with PrakashJha's  Mrityudand , in which she performed opposite Shabana Azmi and Shilpa Shirodkar . Dixit

 played the role of Ketki, one of the three troubled women and earned immense critical acclaim

for her performance. Upperstall.com wrote "Madhuri gives a wonderful, insightful performance

as the self-respecting educated woman married into a family of male chauvinistic upper class

landlords and who is humiliated by her husband when she objects to his misdeeds, never hitting a

7/29/2019 Madhuri Dixit

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/madhuri-dixit 5/15

false note. She more than matches up to seasoned artists like Shabana and Om Puri in their 

scenes together. In a word, she is mesmerizing."[18]

 

Dixit earned commercial success with Yash Raj Films' super-hit musical-romance  Dil To Pagal 

 Hai starring opposite Shahrukh Khan and Karisma Kapoor . Her portrayal of a young woman

faced with a moral dilemma fetched her a fourth Filmfare Best Actress Award.[25]

 The movie

 became the second highest grosser of the year .[26]

 

In 1998, Dixit had only one release Wajood  opposite  Nana Patekar  and Mukul Dev. The film did

 below average business. In the following year, Dixit had again only one

release  Aarzoo opposite Akshay Kumar  and Saif Ali Khan. Anjali Abrol of Planet Bollywood

 praised Dixit's performance and wrote "Madhuri, despite any role given, carries it off with ease

and grace... even despite the mismatch of age, she does justice to her role, and is the best actress

in Bollywood today, comparatively. She also is what I consider a classic Indian beauty.... her 

natural, distinctive Indian looks set her apart from many other heroines (I say heroines because

many have yet to learn to act, and cannot justfully be called actresses yet), she proves that she

does not need blatant blond/red highlights, tons of body paint and makeup, blue contacts, and

scraps of clothes to look beautiful...and that the complete following of Western trends isn´t worth

sacrificing traditional Indian beauty, grace, and respect for popularity...a mixture of both that

remains respectable...it´s quality rather than quantity (or lackthereof, in the clothes

department)."[27]

  Aarzoo was a failure in India but was a modest success overseas.

2000 – 06: Continuing in other roles and hiatus[edit source | edit beta] 

In 2000, Dixit earned critical acclaim and commercial success with Rajkumar 

Santoshi's  Pukar  opposite Anil Kapoor and  Namrata Shirodkar .  Pukar was a moderate success at

the box office. Dixit's performance of Anjali, a jealous lover was praised by critics. Anish

Khanna of Planet Bollywood wrote "Her character has a gamut of emotions to run through –  

childish immaturity, obsession, evil, anger, anguish – and Madhuri really sinks her teeth into

each one. She is magical in the dance sequences but even more amazing in the dialogue

sequences. Dixit's performance in Pukar earned her twelfth nomination for the Filmfare Best

Actress Award.[28]

 Dixit's next release of the year was Gaja Gamini, which was a failure at the

 box office.

In 2001, Dixit starred in Deepak Shivdasani's love triangle Yeh Raaste Hain Pyaar 

 Ke opposite Ajay Devgan and Preity Zinta. The film was a flop but Dixit was praised for her 

 performance.[29]

 Dixit followed up by reuniting with Rajkumar Santoshi in the multi-

starrer   Lajja. She was featured in a supporting role opposite Samir Soni. Despite being a multi-

starrer movie, the film failed in India but it was an overseas success. Dixit again earned critical

7/29/2019 Madhuri Dixit

http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/madhuri-dixit 6/15

acclaim for her performance and Taran Adarsh of Bollywood Hungama praised her saying that

"Madhuri Dixit is simply fantastic. The ease with which she emotes this complex character 

deserves full marks. Her expressions when her lover dumps her during the course of the play,

 proves what a magnificent actress she is."[30]

 Dixit's performance earned her a nomination for 

the Filmfare Award for Best Supporting Actress. 

In 2002, Dixit starred in a lead role in the much-delayed love triangle  Hum Tumhare Hain

Sanam opposite Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan. The film received mainly negative reviews

 but did above average business at the box-office, becoming the fifth highest grossing movie of 

the year .[31]

 Dixit's next release was Sanjay Leela Bhansali's hit film  Devdas, co-starring

Shahrukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai. Dixit portrayed the role of  Chandramukhi, a courtesan in

love with Devdas. She was praised by Sita Menon of Rediff "The most understated role and

 perhaps the one that is most lingering, in terms of virtuosity, is that played by Madhuri Dixit. As

Chandramukhi, she is simply stunning, lending passion, fire and gentleness with suchconsummate ease that watching her perform is sheer delight."

[32] The film was the highest

grossing movie of 2002 and Dixit's performance earned her the Filmfare Best Supporting Actress

Award. It was also featured at the Cannes Film Festival. It turned out to be Dixit's last movie as

she took a sabbatical from films in order to raise her children.

The following year a film named after her,  Main Madhuri Dixit Banna Chahti Hoon, was

released[33]

 in which a woman (played by Antara Mali) aspires to become the new Madhuri Dixit

 by trying her luck in Bollywood.[34][35]

 

Dixit, also made her first appearance on Television as a host for the India's first reality show

"Kahin Na Kahin Koi Hai" on Sony TV.[36]

 

2007 – present: Return with Aaja Nachle [edit source | edit beta] 

In 2006, Dixit returned to Mumbai with her husband and sons to start filming for   Aaja

 Nachle.[37]

 The film released in November 2007 and, despite the critics panning it, Dixit's

 performance was highly appreciated,[38][39]

 with the  New York Timescommenting about her that

"she's still got it".[40][41]

 Her performance in Aaja Nachle earned her the record-setting thirteenth

nomination for the Filmfare Best Actress Award.

On Women's International Day in 2007, Dixit topped Rediff 's list of the Best Bollywood

Actresses Ever .[2]

 In May 2008, she was given a tribute by Indian Film Festival at Los

Angeles.[42]

 In March 2010, The Economic Times named Dixit in the list of the "33 women who

made India proud".[3]

 She also received a Filmfare Special Award in honor of her 25 years in the

Bollywood industry. In 2011, Rediff.com listed her in top 10 "Readers Choice: The Greatest

Actresses of all time".[43]
