Madhuri Dixit (Marathi: माधुरी दीक्षित) pronunciation: [maːd̪ʱʊriː d̪ɪkʂɪt] or [d̪ɪkʃɪt]) (born as Madhuri Shankar Dixit to a Marathi family on May 15, 1967) is a four-time Filmfare Awards winning Indian Bollywood actress. She is a native of Mumbai, India. Throughout the late 1980s and the 1990s, she dominated Hindi cinema as a leading actress, appearing in many hit films. She is considered to be an icon of the Bollywood film industry.
Film career
Dixit attended Parle College and wanted to be a micro-biologist. She is trained as a Kathak dancer, in the Indian classical tradition. She made her acting debut in Abodh (1984). After a few minor and supporting roles her first major role was in Tezaab (1988) which launched her career. She then went on to star in the hit films Dayavan (1988), Ram Lakhan (1989), Dil (1990), Saajan (1991), Beta (1992), Khalnayak (1993), and the Bollywood blockbuster Hum Aapke Hain Kaun! (1994). After three years of little success, she appeared as Pooja in the successful Dil To Pagal Hai (1997) for which she won her fourth Filmfare Best Actress Award
For many years, she was considered to be the most popular and powerful actress in Bollywood, known for her beauty, acting talents, and dancing skills. Nearly all her hit dancing sequences were choreographed by Saroj Khan. Her dance sequence in the song Chane Ke Kheth Mein (Film Anjaam) received critical acclaim. Her dancing skills, facial grimaces and lusting eyes in the song has haunted the hearts of millions of people ever since.
In 2001, Dixit was awarded the National Citizens Award to recognise various activities that effect everyday life.
In 2002, she starred in Devdas, with actor Shahrukh Khan and Miss World 1994 Aishwarya Rai. Madhuri Dixit was applauded for her acting in the film. The film attracted worldwide attention and was featured at the Cannes Film Festival. Since then she has not appeared in any films.
On February 25, 2006 she performed on stage for the first time in six years at the Filmfare Awards to music from her last movie Devdas. Her performance was choreographed by Saroj Khan and was very well received.
Madhuri Dixit has been the muse for the famous Indian painter M.F. Hussain who considers her the epitome of the Indian woman. She also appeared in his film Gaja Gamini (2000). Gaja Gamini was intended as a tribute to Dixit's talent and beauty.
On December 7, 2006, Dixit returned to Mumbai along with her husband and sons in order to start to film her new movie titled Aaja Naachley, to be produced by Yash Chopra and directed by Anil Mehta.
Fame and International Popularity
Madhuri has a large fan base not only in India but also several Middle Eastern countries. Notably, she has earned an iconic status among people of Afghanistan (being equally admired by both men and women), Iran, Pakistan, and the Arab countries from the Gulf region. So popular she became in Afghanistan that a major cause of truancy from military service among Taliban was Madhuri's films, who would skip active duty to catch the latest sing-and-dance number from the Indian beauty. She also became a source of inspiration and fashion trendsetter among Arab teenage girls.
Personal life
Madhuri, born to Shankar and Snehlata Dixit, married an Indian-American, UCLA trained cardiovascular surgeon who practices in Denver, Dr. Sriram Madhav Nene, in 1999, also from a Marathi Koknastha Bramhin family. She has two sons, Arin (born in March 2003 in Colorado) and Ryan (born on March 8, 2005 in Colorado).
She has two elder sisters, Rupa and Bharati, and an elder brother, Ajit. Madhuri now lives with Dr. Nene and her two children in Denver, Colorado, USA.
