I grew up idolising Madhuri Dixit, though I wasn't a Hindi film buff. I had an academic upbringing, and movies were a rarity. I looked up to Madhuri because I loved dancing, and she's a fantastic dancer.
I would love to make Madhuri Dixit dance. If I do a film with her, it definitely has to be a 'Madhuri Dixit film'. I don't want to cast her in a small role. I will do a full- fledged dance film with her.
Growing up, I idolised Madhuri Dixit. She's my favourite actress, and I used to pretend I was her all the time.
Madhuri Dixit is too good. She is too good. That's why she's Madhuri Dixit.
Growing up with three younger sisters had many perks. I would choreograph their moves to Madhuri Dixit songs.
I don't start a film with the heroine but with the cinema subject. If there is a woman in the story, she has to be of a particular type. It's not as if I start with Madhuri Dixit and then think what kind of film.
I grew up on a staple of films where I saw actors like Waheeda Rehman, Smita Patil, Shabana Azmi, Madhuri Dixit, Sridevi playing very powerful parts in films.
I follow dancers like Jennifer Lopez and Beyonce, as they are in my zone, but when it comes to Indian dancing, I am a huge Madhuri Dixit fan.
So my first role was when I was five years old. I had one scene with my mom in a Bengali film called 'Gajamukta.' After that, I thought I'd become Madhuri Dixit.
Given a chance, I would love to romance Tabu. I wouldn't mind doing a film with Manisha Koirala, either. Or Madhuri Dixit.
I was dreaming of wearing a sari and dancing like Madhuri Dixit. I also used to dream of working with Shah Rukh Khan. I did nothing to make it happen. I only dreamed and believed in my dreams.
Madhuri Dixit, I love her.
I am a huge fan of Madhuri Dixit.
When I was young, I remember the first song I danced to was 'Akhiyan Milaon,' because I am a big fan of Madhuri Dixit.
It feels great to be on the same pedestal as Madhuri Dixit.
I'd love to be able to dance like Madhuri Dixit.
I had been choreographing and dancing for a good 12 years before I did 'Que Sera Sera' for Boney Kapoor. I did it for two reasons - one, I shared a good rapport with Boney, and the more important reason, Madhuri Dixit.
