La divina Madhuri Dixit compie oggi 45 anni. L'articolo Mad about Mads di Rahul Gangwani, pubblicato da Filmfare, ripercorre la carriera della celebre attrice e ballerina attraverso le sue coreografie migliori:
'A breathtakingly beautiful girl dressed in pretty pink dancing benevolently on the 70 mm screen. The year was 1988 and the film was Tezaab. And the nation was in love. There was enchantment in her smile, charm in her moves and exuberance in her personality. In brief, it was pure magic. We are talking about a phenomenon known as Madhuri Madness. (...) There is no explanation on how a simple Maharashtrian would-be micro-biologist became one of the biggest names of Hindi Cinema. Madhuri Dixit’s journey in the movie business is as enticing as her aura. She is one woman who can attract the fantasy of nine year old as well as a nonagenarian. M.F. Husain’s fascination for Madhuri is a story well known and goes on to prove her alluring magnetism.
Madhuri Dixit is the epitome of grace. There are many attributes which contributed in the making of the Superstar. But the one factor which still dominates her personality is her dancing flair. Dance is Madhuri’s X factor. Boy she can dance and how! (...) Her moves serve as a perfect confluence of poetry and music. Her dance beautifully amalgamates method with spontaneity and make for a visual epiphany. She is one actor who can be a picture of poise and at the same time steam up the screen with her seduction. Maverick film-maker Sanjay Leela Bhansali once famously said that one can go mad watching her dance. We concur that'.
