Bollywood Throughout the Years
Three girls decided to pay a tribute to the legendary Madhuri Dixit.
They dressed up and sang in their car, constantly changing outfits and songs.
Madhuri Dixit is not only a dancing icon in Bollywood, but an inspiration to all women with her expression, grace, beauty and now leadership in roles of unique films that speak to the world.
According to Wikipedia, Dixit made her acting debut in Rajshri Productions’ movie Abodh in 1984 opposite the Bengali actor, Tapas Paul. The film failed to do well but Dixit earned positive reviews from critics.
Aakash Barvalia on Gomolo praised her as he wrote “Madhuri excels in her role as a young naive bride who acquits herself well as the naive village girl and does not realize what marriage actually entails.” Her only release of 1985 was Awara Baap that turned out to be another failure for Dixit.
In 1986, Dixit starred in two movies, Swati and Manav Hatya but both films flopped at the box office.Dixit had three releases in 1987 with Mohre, Hifazat and Uttar Dakshin but her films continued to flop at the box office. Among Dixit’s three releases of 1988, first two of them – Dayavan and Khatron Ke Khiladi- too failed to do well commercially.
Dixit finally attained stardom after a series of consecutive flops when she landed the lead female role of Mohini in N. Chandra’s romantic thriller Tezaab opposite Anil Kapoor. The film went on to become that year’s highest-grossing movie. It was Dixit’s first commercial success and her earliest of several collaborations with Kapoor.
