Born on the 15th of May 1967, Madhuri Dixit is among those Indian actresses who became the predominant face of Bollywood for almost a decade between the 1980s and 1990s.
Coming from Maharashtra, Madhuri was initially more inclined towards the sciences and wanted to be a micro-biologist. However, as her dance training started attracting her, showbiz became her dream.
Madhuri's first Bollywood movie was Abodh in 1984. The film was minorly successful and got Madhuri roles in a number of other films. Despite many roles, Madhuri hit success only four years later, in 1988, when she acted in Tezaab opposite Anil Kapoor.
In 1999, Madhuri tied the knot with NRI doctor Shriram Nene. In 2003, Madhuri gave birth to her elder son Arin and in 2005 to Raayan. After she became a mother, she quit acting and moved permanently to Colorado.
Madhuri made a comeback to Bollywood in 2007 with Aaja Nachle. In 2008, Madhuri Dixit was awarded the Padma Shri by the President of India for her contribution to Indian cinema. As of now, Madhuri is considering signing Prakash Jha's next film opposite Ranbir Kapoor.
