Bollywood superstar Madhuri Dixit has recently shared captivating pictures on her social media, showcasing her timeless beauty.
Dressed in a beautiful baby pink lehenga and complemented by perfect accessories, Dixit looked nothing short of stunning. She opted for classy, subtle makeup, enhancing her natural features beautifully. Her post was captioned “Shaam Gulaabi,” accompanied by the famous ‘Slow Motion Angreza’ song from the hit movie Bhaag Milkha Bhaag as the background score.
The actress has been receiving rave reviews for her performance in her recently released show, Mrs Deshpande. In a recent interview, Madhuri discussed her aspirations of stepping into directing. She acknowledged her extensive experience over her 40-year career but expressed that she doesn’t feel ready to take on the role of a director just yet.
Madhuri explained, “Well, a lot of people ask me that because I have been working for 40 years, so that brings with it the kind of experience because you have seen so many directors, worked with them, and learnt from them. But I think I have to be ready for it, and right now I am not, but at some point maybe.”
When asked about the rise of women directors and if she has any plans to venture into that space, Madhuri reiterated her feelings about readiness. She is passionate about her craft but believes it’s essential to be fully prepared.
Reflecting on her journey in cinema, she compared her debut movie Abodh to her latest project Mrs Deshpande. Madhuri noted how the industry has evolved: “At that time, there were only five or six very organised producers, like Yash Chopra, B R Chopra, Subhash Ghai, Rajshri Productions, and a few more, and the rest was pretty unorganised. Today, it is very organised. Back then, we relied more on spontaneity; today, we can prepare for a role.”
She added, “You get a script, along with amenities such as RVs, where you can chill after every shot or get ready. At that time, we did not have all this; we used to sit under the sun, with an umbrella over our heads. So, there are a lot of things where the comfort of the actor is taken care of, and also because the character is so prepared that you know what you are going to wear, you know what your look is going to be, and we do a lot of prep for the roles, and we have readings, which never used to happen then.”
