Timeline

1967

Madhuri Dixit Nene (née Dixit, ; born 15 May 1967) is an Indian actress who primarily works in Hindi films.

A leading actress of Indian cinema, she has appeared in over 70 films.

Noted by critics for her beauty, dancing skills, and characters, Dixit was credited for singularly paralleling her male contemporaries and leading star vehicles in a male-dominated industry.

Madhuri Dixit was born on 15 May 1967 into a Marathi Kokanastha Brahmin family in Bombay (present-day Mumbai) to Shankar and Snehlata Dixit.

She has two elder sisters and an elder brother.

She kindled an interest in dance at an early age of three, and went on to train in Kathak for eight years; later on becoming a professionally trained Kathak dancer.

"I received a scholarship as a Kathak dancer when I was nine. I even remember that it was due to a dance performance that the first time my name had appeared in the paper. I was seven or eight years old at that time and had performed at the Guru Purnima festival. And there was a journalist who was there and he had written this article saying that 'this little girl stole the show' – something like that. I was over the moon. So dance gave me a sense of achievement. Of worth.'"

Dixit received her education at Divine Child High School in Andheri.

Apart from her studies, she participated in extra-curricular activities, such as dramatics.

Aspiring to become a microbiologist, Dixit enrolled at the Sathaye college in Vile Parle (Mumbai) where she studied microbiology as one of her subjects in BSc.

However, six months after she had commenced her course, Dixit decided to discontinue studies and pursue a full-time career in films.

1984

Born and raised in Mumbai, Dixit made her acting debut in 1984 with a leading role in the drama Abodh.

Dixit made her cinema debut in 1984 with Rajshri Productions' drama Abodh, opposite Bengali actor, Tapas Paul.

Upon release, the film failed commercially but Dixit's performance earned her positive reviews from critics.

Aakash Barvalia of Gomolo wrote, "Madhuri excels in her role as a young bride who acquits herself well as the naive village girl and does not realise what marriage actually entails."

1985

Her only release of 1985 – Awara Baap – flopped at the box office.

1986

During this time, a monochrome photograph of hers, shot by Gautam Rajadhyaksha was featured on the cover of the then-popular magazine Debonair and she appeared as the cover girl of Filmfare in April 1986.

Dixit's next four releases were the dramas Swati (1986), Manav Hatya (1986), Hifazat (1987) and Uttar Dakshin (1987).

None of these films performed well either critically or commercially.

Hifazat marked Dixit's first of several collaborations with Anil Kapoor.

1988

After a few successive commercially failed films, she rose to prominence with the action drama Tezaab (1988), and established herself with starring roles in the top-grossing romantic dramas Dil (1990), Beta (1992), Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! (1994), and Dil To Pagal Hai (1997).

She won four Filmfare Awards for Best Actress for her performances in them.

It went on to become the highest-grossing film of the year and she received her first Filmfare Award for Best Actress nomination; the film's success established Dixit as a leading actress of Hindi cinema, and marked a significant turning point in her career.

Akshay Shah of Planet Bollywood wrote, "Madhuri Dixit also gives a fine tuned performance. Though she is more remembered for her crowd pleasing dance act 'Ek Do Teen', her acting needs to be noted, specially in the scenes where she is pitted against Anupam Kher."
