Madhuri Dixit is back in the business with her newest work, this time for the web, The Fame Game. This fabulous series had Madhuri playing an actress with name and fame. Madhuri was appreciated for her portrayal in this leading role. Well, as Madhuri got back to the limelight, with her fans wanting to see her more, there was an instance during a media interaction wherein Madhuri talked about the throwback moment in her career, during her initial times, when she was criticised for being very thin.
A report on hindustantimes talked about this and we take reference from that story for our write up here.
In an interview, Madhuri was asked what she thought was the one challenge she had to face, which new actors in today’s Hindi film industry do not have to face. The actor said there were challenges then, and there are challenges now, for every new actor, whether it was how ‘to get good roles’ or even how to ‘get a film.’ The actor said these challenges ‘will always be there’ in films. But she shared the one challenge that she thinks doesn’t exist anymore.
“During my time… they thought I was too skinny to begin with. Yeh heroine, isko thoda mota karo (make this heroine gain weight) they used to say. I don’t think that that’s an issue now,” Madhuri told Bollywood Hungama.
Well, every actress has had a learning curve in this industry, right?
