Like us, if you, too, are a '90s kid and are obsessed with Bollywood, then, there is a high chance that you have spent your childhood watching, loving, and wanting to emulate the silver screen looks of Madhuri Dixit. Her million dollar smile, arresting theatrical performances, and killer dance moves reigne over the '90s Bollywood scene and how! Even today, when one watches her on-screen, it's hard to take your eyes off of her and not be completely in awe of her grace and beauty. Yes, we are #fangirlsforever! As the actress turns one year older, here's us taking a look at eleven of her most iconic looks through the years.
Multicolour Lehenga & Pink One Shoulder Top
Kasta Saree
The All Black Disco Attire
Sanjay Dutt and Madhuri Dixit scorched the stage with song Tamma Tamma Loge from the movie Thanedaar. What also made this peppy number extremely iconic besides its dance moves were the funky hairdos, shimmery, blingy costumes inspired by the Disco era, and of course, the OTT silver jewellery that were in sync with the disco groove of the song.
Fun fact: It took Sanjay Dutt a whopping 48 retakes and a full day to master the chair dance routine.
Orange Saree
Fun fact: Saroj Khan won the Filmfare Award For Best Choreography for this song.
Orange Rajasthani Ghagra
Purple Embellished Saree
Modern White Skirt
If you have seen the movie Dil Toh Pagal Hai, you know what we mean when we say it was a sartorial treat. And since it was styled by the fashion genius, Manish Malhotra, we aren't really surprised. From the effortlessly chic athleisure and skater dresses to the lacy sheer chiffon kurtas, the movie and Madhuri Dixit set off a barrage of trends yet again. Our favourite look, however, was this serene white skirt paired with a modern blouse. It is elegant yet so glamorous and something we'd happily wear even today.
Embroidered Green Anarkali
Fun Fact: The green anarkali was later auctioned for a whopping Rs 3 crore.
Black And Blue Lehenga
The big Madhuri Dixit comeback in 2007, Aaja Nachle, was a film built around and showcased the dancing prowess of its lead star. We loved this beautiful black net lehenga with turquise blue embroidery that featured in the title song, too. Thankfully, the jewellery was minimal and the scene-stealing lehenga had it's moment on celluloid.
