 Madhuri Dixit continues to ruleQueen of hearts. The eternal Dhak Dhak girl. Madhuri Dixit continues to rule. She may have been away from the strobe lights of glamour, but her tantalizing appeal fails to diminish in the wake of fresh young talent. In fact, today she is looking fitter and even more radiant than even before. And of course she is dancing away to glory yet again in her comeback vehicle Aaja Nachle.
In a rare public appearance yesterday when she inaugurated a painting exhibition of young Painter Purnendy Mandal, Dixit spoke to us about an illustrious career that most certainly signifies a very important era in Hindi films. There was a time when MF Hussain made paintings out of your Didi Tera Devar Deewana pose, today you are promoting a new artiste. Has life come full circle? "I think he was more obsessed with the film than me," the muse laughed.
She was last seen in Sanjay Leela Bhansali's film Devdas. But it would be fair to say that her last big hit was Yash Chopra's Dil To Pagal Hai.

My kids Aryan and Ryan were 2 and a half and 4 and a half when I decided that now I could do something for me. Coincidentally, it was at that time only that I got an offer from Yash Raj Films, and the best part was that it suited me to a T.

I am aware about the responsibility being on me, as it’s a no-hero film. I am not bothered about the film’s success, as the very attempt of a woman-empowerment subject in film is a big thing for me.
