Madhuri regrets kissing scene
When asked about this kissing scene, Madhuri Dixit had said, ‘Looking back, I feel that I should have said that I should not have done this scene. But, maybe then I was a little scared. Then I used to think that I am an actress and the director has planned this scene in a special way. In such a situation, if I do not do this scene, then the story can be affected.
Then decided
Madhuri Dixit further said, ‘Apart from this, I was not even from the film family. So I had no idea about the industry or its workings. I didn’t know at that time that you can even refuse to do a kissing scene. That kiss had no use in the film. That’s why I decided that I will not do any more kissing scenes in future and never did it again.
Acting debut in 1984, became a star like this
Madhuri Dixit made her acting debut in 1984 with the film ‘Abodh’. Initially some of her films were flops, but ‘Tezaab’ in 1988 made Madhuri an overnight star. ‘Dayavan’ was released in 1988 itself and it was a blockbuster.
