Madhuri Dixit on Fame, Family & Finding Herself | The Faye D’Souza Show

In this deeply personal and wide-ranging conversation, Madhuri Dixit opens up about the life behind the legend. From her early years as a young Kathak dancer in Mumbai to becoming one of India’s most admired stars, she shares untold stories of her childhood, her first break, the years before success, and the moment Tezaab changed everything.

Madhuri speaks about navigating fame in the pre-social media era, the discipline that shaped her career, and the role her mother played in keeping her grounded. She reflects on criticism, failure, reinvention, motherhood, returning to India, and raising children in a far more complex and connected world.

She also talks about her bond with photographers like Gautam Rajadhyaksha, her memories of working with the Khans in their early years, and her relationship with M.F. Husain. Madhuri reveals how OTT has opened new creative possibilities and why her new character, Mrs. Deshpande, is one of her most challenging roles yet.

This is Madhuri Dixit as you’ve rarely seen her—honest, reflective, warm, and full of wisdom from a life lived in front of the camera and far beyond it.
