Bollywood queen Madhuri Dixit has lately refuted rumors about the rivalry between herself and late fellow star Sridevi in the era of 90s.
Madhuri Dixit and Sridevi were set to appear together in Ramesh Sippy's Zameen (1987), but despite the anticipation, they never shared screen time, and the film was ultimately never released. In a recent interview with News 18, Madhuri reflected on their careers, saying their paths never crossed professionally.
Despite being part of the same film, they didn’t have many opportunities to connect on set. “We didn’t really get to talk much,” she said.
The Maja Ma actress explained that after Pukaar was completed and released, she got married and moved to the US, which is why there was limited interaction between her and Sridevi.
She acknowledged that Sridevi had entered the industry much earlier, having worked since childhood, and admired the hard work she put in to achieve her success. She also expressed deep respect for her dedication and career.
For the untold, Sridevi attended Madhuri Dixit and Dr. Shriram Nene’s wedding reception in 1999, marking a significant moment in their relationship.
