Madhuri Dixit is an Indian actress known for her work in Bollywood films. She made her acting debut with the role of a young bride in the 1984 film Abodh.[1] Dixit went on to appear in several films over the next two years, including the dramas Awara Baap (1985) and Swati (1986), though none of them garnered her much recognition.[1] Her breakthrough role came in 1988 with N. Chandra's thriller Tezaab, the highest-grossing film of that year.[2][3] "Ek Do Teen", a dance number that she performed in the film, was widely popular.[3] She continued to play the lead in the commercially successful action-dramas Ram Lakhan (1989), Tridev (1989), and Kishen Kanhaiya (1990).[4][5] The role of a wealthy brat in the 1990 romantic drama Dil earned Dixit her first Filmfare Award for Best Actress.[6] The following year, she starred in Saajan, and won a second Best Actress award at Filmfare for playing a woman who rebels against her manipulative mother-in-law in the drama Beta.[6][7]

Dixit featured alongside Jackie Shroff and Sanjay Dutt in the action thriller Khalnayak (1993), one of the highest grossing films of that year.[8] She then played an avenger in the drama Anjaam (1994) to positive reviews.[9] Dixit's subsequent release was Sooraj Barjatya's Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! (1994), a family drama which emerged as the highest-grossing Bollywood film to that point, and established her as a leading actress of Bollywood.[10][11] The following year, she featured in Raja and Yaraana; in the latter she played a woman who attempts an escape from her abusive husband.[12] Both of her releases in 1996—Rajkumar and Prem Granthwere financial failures.[13] However, Yash Chopra's 1997 romantic film Dil To Pagal Hai was a major success for her, earning her a fourth Filmfare Award for Best Actress.[14][15] She garnered critical acclaim for her work in the drama Mrityudand (1997).[16] Three years later, she was paired opposite Anil Kapoor in the critically acclaimed drama Pukar, following which she portrayed five roles in the experimental film Gaja Gamini.[17]

Dixit was praised for her supporting role as a woman fighting against gender discrimination in Lajja (2001), a drama on women's rights, which performed poorly at the box-office.[18][19] The year 2002 saw Dixit starring in two romantic dramas, including Devdas opposite Shah Rukh Khan, in which she played the Chandramukhi character, a courtesan in love with an alcoholic. For the film, she won a Filmfare Award in the Best Supporting Actress category.[15][20] After a five-year absence from the screen, Dixit played a leading role in Anil Mehta's dance film Aaja Nachle (2007).[16] Despite the film's failure at the box-office, her performance was praised.[16] The widely-praised role of a con woman in Abhishek Chaubey's black comedy film Dedh Ishqiya (2014) marked her first acting role in seven years,[21][22][23] and she received her 14th Best Actress nomination at Filmfare for it.[24][25] She followed it by playing the leader of a vigilante group in the crime drama Gulaab Gang alongside Juhi Chawla.[26] In addition to her film work, Dixit has hosted Kahin Na Kahin Koi Hai, a reality show on arranged marriages, and has served as a talent judge for four seasons of the dance reality show Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa.
