Непревзойденная Мадхури

wichy: Как-то даже несправедливо, что у нее нет своей темы :-) Она, конечно, временно (надеюсь [img src=/gif/sm/sm13.gif] ) не в индустрии, но тем не менее - она одна из ярчайших звезд на небосклоне Болливуда [img src=/gif/sm/sm10.gif]

wichy: Одно из недавних интервью (06.04.2006 г.): (http://rss.topix.net/who/madhuri-dixit?scoring=d) Вы скучаете по киноиндустрии? Смотря что вы подразумеваете под словом "киноиндустрия". Если ее атрибуты - то нет, я не скучаю по ним. Но я скучаю по своей профессии, приготовлениям к съемкам, нервозности перед съемками и подобным вещам... Но у меня мало времени думать об этом в Лос-Анджелесе, мои дети слишком малы - один и три года, и требуют внимания. Но в свободные моменты я вспоминаю мою кино-жизнь. Старший сын скоро узнает, как популярна его мать. Он уже попробовал этого, когда мы ходили к врачу в Мумбаи. Фотограф шел за нами и снимал. Это надо было видеть, как счастлив был мой сын. Ваши дети единственные, кому неизвестно о вашей славе Абсолютно неизвестно. Когда я пришла домой с представления на Filmfare Awards, они оказались узнавать меня в гриме. Они не могли видеть меня даже на ТВ - было слишком поздно, когда началось мое представление. Однажды в Лос-Анджелесе я пробовала показать им мои клипы - они не заинтересовались. И когда я показала старшему мое фото на обложке ДВД с фильмом Девдас, он обычным тоном сказал - "это ты, мам". Он не связывает меня со славой. Было бы забавно увидеть, как они отреагировали бы на Мадхури-звезду.


nelke: wichy пишет: оставила карьеру ради семьи и детей И вот:

wichy: Еще одна его версия: Вы скучаете по поклонению? Совершенно нет!!! Я слишком занята, будучи женой и матерью. Иметь собственную семью было моей мечтой. И сейчас она у меня есть. Я выросла в большой семье, и для меня очень важно иметь свою семью. Так же важно, как моя слава, даже больше. Мне нравится быть актрисой. Но я точно знала, сколько лет отдам карьере. Насладившись каждым из них, сейчас я наслаждаюсь, будучи домохозяйкой. Я уверен, в Лос-Анджелесе Вас узнают. О да. В магазинах подходят сфотографироваться. Вам придется возвращаться уже совсем в другую киноиндустрию Да, в другую. Сегодняшние фильмы технически более совершенны, и с тех пор как кино на Хинди распространилось в разные части света, оно эстетически гораздо лучше, чем более ранние фильмы. Я смотрю некоторые мои ранние фильмы и поеживаюсь. Но так и должно быть. Мне это нравится, я рада переменам к лучшему, приятно внимание даже к деталям. У вас много друзей в индустрии? Не очень много. Но у меня есть доброжелатели. И я знаю, что если у них есть какие-то задумки, они обратятся ко мне. Проект должен стоить моих усилий. На самом деле. было три фильма, в которых я должна была участвовать два года назад, но они не состоялись из-за моей беременности. Я думаю, в тот период времени родить ребенка было более заманчивым, чем снять фильм. Сейчас люди, обращающиеся ко мне, приходят с конкретными ролями и не просто случайными предложениями. Это прекрасно. Я открыта любым предложениям, кроме скучных. Вы смотрели недавно какие-нибудь фильмы? Я видела несколько песен из Банти и Бабли. Я обожаю Kajra Re. Parineeta единственный фильм, который я видела, и он мне понравился. Вам бы очень подошла роль в нем. Но Видья Балан сделала чудесную работу. Сейчас, когда я здесь, я планирую оставлять детей с моими родителями и смотреть новые фильмы.

wichy: nelke Классная фотография :-) Мне кажется, из Мадхури вышла чудеснейшая мать. А ребенок очень прикольный

nelke: wichy Мадху такая тут веселая, озорная, именно такой она мне нра А дите на китайчонка смахивает имхо...

Lo: Дите копия папа... Даже прически одинаковые...

wichy: А я тут узнала, темная я женщина, что в Kahe Ched Mohe в Девдасе Мадхури слова проговаривает сама... А Кавита Кришнамурти тока поет за нее, где идет чистый вокал.

queen79: Очень понравилась мне семейная фотография... Почему-то стало как-то легко и радостно на душе... Вообще уж чего не отнять у Мадхури( ну,кроме, естественно таланта и потрясающей пластики)- это ее улыбки! Когда она улыбается- все, солнце взошло По крайней мере, у меня всегда такая ассоциация возникает.. А вообще,я очень люблю Мадхури,да. Ну, и как я уже говорила , Мадхури в наце и в танце- это просто праздник какой-то!

wichy: queen79 пишет: Вообще уж чего не отнять у Мадхури( ну,кроме, естественно таланта и потрясающей пластики)- это ее улыбки! Угу, не припомню больше никого с настолько обаятельной, теплой, сияющей улыбкой. Вообще, Мадхури для меня, пожалуй - воплощение женственности. А в наце и в танце - это да, очччень скучаю по ее танцам, только ради них уже хочу ее возвращения. Эх, фильмец какой-нибудь с ней, да хореографом туда ее любимую Сародж Кхан....

queen79: wichy пишет: Эх, фильмец какой-нибудь с ней, да хореографом туда ее любимую Сародж Кхан.... Это да,это да.... Может,вернется все-таки- так хочется настоящего красивого инд.кино, с танцами, с костюмами...

nelke: Madhuri Dixit 'The Dhak-Dhak' girl who created waves with her dance number 'Ek Do Teen', 'Dhak-Dhak Karne Laga', 'Choli Ke Pichey' etc is now all set to woo the audience by portraying 'Chandramukhi' in Sanjay Leela Bansali's 'Devdas'. Madhuri has stolen the hearts of millions by her innocent beauty, her sensuous smile and killing looks. She was in the peak of her career when she got married creating a sudden void and doubt in the mind of her fans as to whether it was the end of her career. Madhuri is now excited about 'Devdas' and awaiting its release. According to her this is her best performance. Seasonsindia correspondent Ekta Dhupia finds out more about her career, marriage, husband and future plans. Excerpts from the interview. Tell me Madhuri why did you decide to get married when you were in your peak and success was at your feet. Well maybe because I was in love (laughs). Actually it just happened. Nothing was planned and I had to get married someday, isn't it? It was not as if I was avoiding marriage all these years because I was busy in my career. I had always said that I'd get married the day I met the right man. And that's what I did. But didn't your step to marry bother you since the film industry tends to write off a heroine the moment she marries. So in a way it would have ended your career. This is not true. What has marriage got to do with marriage? There are and have been many successful heroines who continued working after marriage like Madhubala, Nargisji, Meena Kumari, nutun and have been very successful. Just because I am married it doesn't mean I have lost my drive to work. My husband understands that I am a professional, and it is upto me to choose what I want to do and how I want to handle my career. I do want to continue acting. Of course, my priorities are different now. I will only do films that get me charged, and are worth my while. I am looking for good scripts and challenging roles.

nelke: How was it working with Sanjay Leela Bansali? It was great. I thoroughly enjoyed myself. He is a perfectionist and deals with every situation in the film extraordinarily. My character in the film is very challenging and I can say that it is one of the best performances I have given. Tell us more about 'Chandramukhi'. Well she is epitome of sacrifice and love. I find Chandramukhi's a challenging character to play. She had lived a tough life, seen it all in the raw. And she gave herself to the man she loved without even knowing if he loved her at all. It was tough because in one character you will find shades of all emotions. How was it working with Shah Rukh Khan? Oh! Great. He is very professional and at the same time a kid who is full of energy and zest for life. There were rumours that there was cold vibes between you and Aishwarya on the sets of 'Devdas'? Who spreads such rumours? It is ridiculous. Ash is a very nice girl. We've met and we've talked. But nothing of that sort - no bad vibes or cold vibes or anything. Is it true that you asked for some changes in the script of 'Devdas'? No, no changes. And everybody knows the story of 'Devdas'. What changes can you make in that? And secondly, I don't think Sanjay is someone who will make changes in the script for anyone in the world. Once he knows what the script is, that's it. Your performance in Pukar is rated among your best. What do you think? It was one of those films I said 'yes' to instinctively. I loved the character of Anjali. It was different from anything I had done before.It had shades of grey. Anjali was very human, with all her weaknesses and vulnerability. And it was a great experience working with Raj Santoshi. But I think my performance in 'Dendas' is the best perfomance I have ever given. Tell me what made you accept the role in 'Lajja'. When Rajji came to me first I was very hesitant. Because there were so many characters in the film. But when I heard the script, I liked it. It was a very interesting character - that of a very strong woman. Of course, all the women in the film, whether it is Mahima, Manisha or Rekha, are strong women. It's about how they take a stand in society and everything. I guess finally I got convinced about doing the film. Your film with Ajay Devgan, 'Yeh Raaste Hain Pyaar Ke', has been delayed for a long time. What went wrong? Yes, the film has been delayed due to certain reasons. There was a problem on the set earlier and an entire schedule was cancelled. The set was standing and they said the producer would have to break it. Something like that. I'm not really sure. And one major schedule got cancelled. And then one by one everything started going haywire. But now we're shooting again. I hope everything goes ok now. Do you have any interesting assignments on hand? Yes, there are a couple, but it's too premature to talk about them. What does Mr Nene think of your work? I have shown him just one film of mine, Mrityudand, but he didn't like it. I would like him to see Pukar, and some of my earlier films like Tezaab, Ram Lakhan, Prem Pratigya and Beta. And Devdas ofcourse. How would you describe your husband, Sriram Nene? What kind of a person is he? I see him as an extension of myself. What struck me about him straightaway were our common interests. He's a lot like me. Very easygoing, loves outdoor life. It's been great getting to know him Will you ever consider producing a film to give full play to your talent as an actress? Never. I don't think I am capable of that. But I might consider directing a film. But there's time for that. In a recent interview you had said that you have only done 30 percent of what you are capable of. I do feel that at times, because I am capable of much more. I guess every artiste feels that way. If you are satisfied, you begin to stagnate. I want to grow as an actress everyday. There are so many things you can learn and you can improve upon your skills and abilities everyday.

nelke: Еще интервью с Мадхури, мне понравилось ********************* “Don’t sit so far away, it’s like talking on a long distance line...” Madhuri Dixit had joked when I dropped by at her residence two years ago. Today, the only communication possible with the actress is a long distance call and strangely, it’s not in the least bit uncomfortable. It’s early morning in Florida and Madhuri is buzzing with her morning routine in her cosy apartment. In Mumbai, it’s late evening and I’m getting ready to retire for the day. It’s May 15, Madhuri’s birthday and there are recurring interruptions, but Dixit picks up the threads of our conversation with characteristic patience and professionalism. Are you having a big bash for your birthday? No, I don’t enjoy big bashes. But yes, we are having a quiet dinner in the evening with friends. Actually, the last few weeks have been too hectic. We’ve been travelling particularly every weekend. Now my husband and I are looking forward to spending some time at home. You were recently in UK for the Selfridges show, what was it like? Quite revelatory. The event is a great platform for Indian films. Suddenly, there is a lot of curiosity amongst the West for Asian films. This has happened after Lagaan making it to the Oscars. It’s great news and reason enough for celebration. The show is meant to open new markets for Hindi cinema in the global context. What are your views? What’s heartening is that this is the first time that the West is drawn to Indian mainstream cinema. All along, the representation was from the experimental films. That’s changing. At last, everyone is accepting that there is quality in commercial cinema too. This is a good sign. Acknowledgement will assure responsibility, both for the filmmakers as well as for the artistes. How responsible do you feel as a brand ambassador for your beauty products? Emami as you know is a herbal products range for skin and haircare. There is global interest right now in herbs and horticulture healing. It’s a killer market with cut-throat competition, but the manufacturers are confident of reaching out to a wider audience via the Asians settled abroad. I feel morally and commercially responsible for all my commitments and am giving it my best shot. Finally, of course, the product has to be good to become popular. How would you analyse your last few releases? Lajja was a satisfactory experience. Not just for me but for all of us involved in the film, I think. And that’s apparent in the final product. I look back on my role and the message of the film with a lot of pride. And your forthcoming films? Well, Hum Tumhare Hain Sanam has taken a long time, but there is a refreshing angle to the story. Unlike what everyone thinks, it isn’t a love story but offers new insights into marriage. Shah Rukh plays a husband who cannot express himself. I play an archetypal wife who is oblivious of her husband’s need for romance. Salman is my childhood friend who wants to share everything that goes on in his life and in the bargain oversteps, creates chaos in his friend’s marital life. If a similar situation were to occur in real life would you be able to deal with it? I’d hate to believe that something like that can happen in my life. I’m optimistic by nature and believe that if there is basic trust and confidence in a relationship, if one can communicate, there would be no problems. However, this is a hypothetical question and human beings never know what they can deal with unless faced with a crisis. The same with accomplishments, you never know your true mettle until you’re faced with challenges. Shah Rukh and you exude a special chemistry on screen. How would you describe your relationship with him? We are comfortable as co-stars and there is mutual affection for each other which probably filters in our scenes. He is naughty and I’m watchful of his pranks, but there is a healthy give and take of ideas as well. Acting isn’t about competition but making a scene work. This isn’t possible without camradarie amongst actors. The audience must be able to identiy with what’s happening to the characters on screen. Do filmmakers usually have a convincing theory on why they offer you a particular role? Conscientious directors do because they love their scripts more than anyone else and cannot bear to see anything going wrong with their projection. In certain films, the roles are such that it doesn’t matter who plays which role, in which case when the director offers you a choice, he isn’t being insincere. What was Sanjay Leela Bhansali’s explanation in offering you Chandramukhi and not Paro in Devdas? I think Sanjay was very upfront. He said the film had two roles but he’d like me to play Chandramukhi because that’s how he sees me. His explanation being that my knowledge of dancing and abhinaya would be more appropriate for the character. I agreed because I trust his judgement.

nelke: If you had the choice would you have preferred to play Paro? I don’t think so because I’ve played shades of Paro in my earlier films. The only difference being that the character wasn’t set in a period film. In contrast, I’ve never played a courtesan. Chandramukhi’s character has a graph of emotions. In her devotion for the man, she literally transforms from a tawaif to jogan, which I find very attractive. As an individual, which of the two (Paro/Chandramukhi) do you identify with? That’s a tough one to answer but let me try. Paro was ahead of her times, but in today’s context she seems perfectly reasonable. I’m not sure if it is all that easy to love as selflessly as Chandramukhi did. She made too many sacrifices and assumed responsibility for someone who never loved her in return. That can be very daunting and painful. It all sounds so remote and impractical today. So how did you research for a role so far fetched? In this case what helped was the director’s projection of the character. Bhansali views Chandramukhi as an extension of Meera whose love for Krishna remained unrequited till the end. That’s the emotional part. For physical expression, there were the kathak dances, the elaborate costumes and the magnificent sets. It was literally like living off a fantasy. When I walked on to the sets, I actually felt the part. Is there some trick actors resort to when creating characters? Such a formula does not exist. Most of the time actors follow their instinct. Sometimes, the director provides the subtext as in the case of Devdas. The trick, if at all there is one, is to let the real person withdraw and the role take over. The process happens so quietly that no one except the performer notices it. And of course the director. That’s because he is the only one who has seen the film in his head before actually making it. You’ve also sung a song in the film. They are just a few lines and you can hardly call it singing. They call it kavita or chand, still it was a thrilling experience. Now that you are training as a singer would you say singing is easier than acting? I think nothing is easy. Besides, I’m hardly in a position to draw comparisons between the two. I was fortunate to grow up in an atmosphere where I saw my mother sing. Ever since I can remember our home reverberated with ragaas every morning. May be that’s why I’m so appreciative of music, of the purity of Lata Mangeshkar’s voice, of Asha Bhosle’s vivacity and Alka Yagnik’s prolificity Some years ago, you seemed completely detached from your contemporaries. That’s not true. Progress of art in any form is appealing to me. Maybe I didn’t articulate my appreciation. But then I’m not demonstrative by nature. Also, when you are in the limelight, everything you say and do has a risk of being misinterpreted. That’s the price of stardom and as a safety measure, you make it a habit to become discreet. Now I understand why most successful stars are described as reserved. It’s more out of self preservation than temperament. After all these years what are the changes you see in yourself? Those close to me say that I’ve become more talkative now. I feel I’ve become more expressive about my feelings. Perhaps, I was like this in childhood and then changed over the years. I’m not sure. Perhaps, in the last few years I was so busy working that there was never any time for communicating. Anyway, I like my new self so does my family. How has your family adjusted to your flying visits to India? They miss me and I miss them tremendously becuase we are so used to being with each other. We talk a number of times a day and I am always thinking of what they would be doing at a certain time of the day, just as they think of me time and again. But on the whole they are like a retired couple happy that all their children are well-settled. I’m really fortunate to have such special parents. They’ve sacrificed so much for me. My career demanded keeping crazy schedules but they never complained. I can never repay their affection. What about your adjustment in your new home? Have you made friends with the city? Yeh, initially I was scared but if you have the desire and are ready to push yourself to your optimum level, you can do it. I was frightened to drive, to cook but I’ve made friends with the gadgets and their knobs and the alien roads. In fact, now I shop at the local supermarket, carry lunch to my husband at the hospital, browse in the shops, you can say I’m rocking. What finally matters is happiness in personal life and I have found that in my partner and my dwelling place. Bhawana Somaaya

nelke: Interview (Source : www.indya.com) MADHURI DIXIT "Every child wants to be an actor" Madhuri is glowing with good health. Slimmer than she's ever looked, she's in great shape. Her hair's grown long and lustrous and her smile has become even more enigmatic. She looks extremely relaxed on KC Bokadia's sets. Probably the best thing to happen to her was her wedding. Her fans continue to throng the studios for a glimpse of the dhak dhak queen. Clad in a grey silk and net lehenga kurta with heavily embellished silver zardosi, designed by Reza, her hair done up in a sophisticated bouffant with a lock dangling on her cheek, she looks seductive and sexy. Were her work schedules permitting her time with husband Shriram? "I've just returned from a long holiday with him in Florida," she said, her face saying the rest. "I'm not doing so many films now. And there's a decent gap between my schedules that permit me to take off at least a month in the US. Otherwise it doesn't make sense. I also manage more time now with my parents here in Mumbai." She seemed to have worked it all out for herself. "I'm right now working on KC Bokadia's film Hum Aapke Hain Sanam." The film is directed by the South Indian director Adiyaman. It is a remake of his own Tamil film Thotta Chinungi (Touch me not). In the making now for three years, the film also stars Salman and Shah Rukh Khan, Suman Ranganath and Atul Agnihotri. Her other films are Deepak Shivadasani's Yeh Raaste Hain Pyar Ke with Ajay Devgan, and Sunny Deol in a guest appearance, and Bhansali's Devdas with Shah Rukh and Aishwarya. Sanjay Leela Bhansali of Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam and thirty-five awards fame had always wanted Madhuri as the heroine for every film he made. He finally got the nod from her with Devdas. Was she looking forward to playing Chandramukhi in Devdas? "Hmmmn," she displays just a glimmer of a smile. She is loath to talk to the media yet. "I have not much to say. People still only want to know everything about my marriage and my husband." But I was asking her about her role in Devdas.

nelke: (продолжение) Can't expect human beings to be excited all the time, can I? I decide to sail tepid waters with her. What did she do when she was in the States? That doesn't work with her either. She shrugs her shoulders matter-of-factly: "Oh, I've been going there so many years that I don't end up doing anything particularly new." But marriage had happened to her only in this year, must have made some difference? She smiles: "I did some domestic stuff. We're looking for a house in Florida. In fact, this trip I spent a lot of time house hunting. I've also been working out and exercising a lot because my husband's a health freak." O! How nice, and what else? "I've been spending time with my nieces and nephews. My nephew is four and I really love him, he's my joy," exclaims the doting aunt. Her four-year-old nephew is the apple of her eye. "We were so dumb as kids. Today's kids are too sharp and too aware. Of course, films and television is the largest influence on them. They have independent minds and voice their opinions and choices. Every child from the age of two wants to be an actor or actress and they are actually such good performers." Gawd! That sounds like an epidemic! From there we digress into schooling and right education systems for the right kind of upbringing and the pressures of performance and competition. If what Madhuri claims is right that every child wants to become an actor then it's time we acquainted those poor little things to more options. Sure, there's nothing wrong with acting, but we can't be a nation of only actors can we? "I had a wonderful childhood," Madhuri gushes. "We didn't grow up too fast. Today's kids, I feel, miss out on a large part of childhood. The simple pleasure of going down to play is fast disappearing. Children have almost no physical activity." So, she knows what to do when her kids are born. Send them to play. Laughingly she recalls her nephew's birthday when she had taken him to the store to buy him a gift. She wanted to buy him a SEGA set. "At the store though, he was completely uninterested. He settled for a small dinky car, which I could have bought him anytime. I asked him: "But what about SEGA?" He was not interested. 'I only want this little car,' he said. Kids! Really!" she shook her beautiful head. Was she hooked on to computer games too? "I do surf the net, I like to keep up with technology, though I feel that the net revolution has spoiled our kids for us." However she finds the net to be a tremendous source of information. "But every dot com is the same," the actress opines. 'Dot coms', please lend your ears. Here comes Mrs Nene.

nelke: Interview (Source : www.indiatimes.com) Amidst peals of laughter, actress Madhuri Dixit discusses movies and marital bliss. What is more exciting these days? Being an actress or a wife? I dont know, I think both are really exciting. Because now I have a life. (laughs) And I also have a profession. Thats great. Does the film industry look at you differently at Mrs Madhuri Dixit-Nene? Not really. I guess probably I wont get and I didnt for a long time get that kind of roles where you run around trees and behave like a teenage girl. I guess I wont get a film like Dil. I am past that. Also because I have evolved as an actress. I am looking for better roles, different things to do. But I guess I have to be more careful with the way I schedule my films. I have to divide time between US and here. So how do you divide your time now? Well, I am trying to be here and there as well. So for the past few months I have been in Mumbai, shooting for my films. In a few days time I will take off and go to the US. To be with my husband for a few months. Then I will come back again and start shooting. By the way, theres been too many things written about Devdas about how I didnt like one of the costumes. Well, nothing like that happened. Things are going smoothly with Devdas. The only reason why I am finishing Devdas before I go abroad is because by the time I come back, it will be monsoon and the rain will spoil the sets. So when I come back, only the indoor work will be left. Hey, werent you and Ajay Jadeja supposed to do a film together? Yeah, but the whole thing got shelved. And considering you were spotted at his wedding, whose side did you represent? The groom or the bride? The grooms side, obviously. (laughs) But has your marriage kind of limited the kind of roles being offered to you? Like you said, you cant do a Dil anymore. Not really. Dil is not the only kind of role that there is in this world. There are many others. Like when I did Gaja Gamini, I thought it was an experimental film very different. Lets see what I do next. (laughs) But people wonder whether one of these days you will take off permanently to the US and settle down with your hubby. Of course, eventually thats going to happen. And everybody knows that. But when it will happen is something still to be decided... In the near future? No, not in the near future. (laughs) Has Dr Nene seen any of your films? To tell you the truth, none. I showed him the songs of Pukar. And hes seen a little bit of Gaja Gamini in its rough-cut stage. And how did he react? Gaja Gamini, of course, was a very abstract film. So he was like, What is this? Whos Shakuntala? With Pukar, it was a song routine, and he is not used to seeing songs in films out there. So for him, it was like, How can there be songs? So I had to remind him of the Hollywood musicals on TNT and tell him that we still make musicals. So watch it as you watch a musical. That put things in a perspective for him. Was he shocked to see you do all those jhatkas? Not shocked. But he found it amusing. (laughs) So he would say, I know you, I dont need to see all this. But is it annoying when media attention is focused on your waistline and everybody wants to know whether you are pregnant or not? I know I have been two months pregnant for the past seven months! (laughs) That shows how much sense people have. I think they should let things be. Things will happen when they have to happen. You cant make it happen. In a rush to print that Oh we were the first one to say, they are jumping the gun. Like one newspaper even got my divorce happening. I guess when you are married, they should leave you alone. I remember you saying something once about how its exciting to cook for your husband Its great fun. Because until now I have been only doing it in the movies. (laughs) So did you learn cooking after marriage or you already were good at it? Oh, its all experimentation! (laughs) And he copes with it, right? Oh, yeah, he copes with it. (laughs uproariously) So far, at least! Hes training to be a heart surgeon. As for my knowledge, well, I have seen what they call harvesting. What they do is, when the donor dies, they receive his heart. So I have seen that whole operation. How they take the heart out and transplant it to a person who needs a heart. I have been with him on that... Was that unnerving? Initially, yes. Before I entered the operation theatre, I thought they will have another patient on hand. Because I thought I would look at it and faint. (laughs) But I guess because I am a science student myself, I found it very fascinating. It also gave me a perspective on what kind of life they lead. Its very stressful. Because when you go into an operation theatre, there is no take two. They cant say, Sorry, I cut the wrong thing, can we do it again? The patients life is in their hands. So I was like, My God, here I was thinking my life is too stressful... Want a desi version of this movie! We couldnt help reminding Madhuri that somebody should remake My Best Friends Wedding with her in the role played by Julia Roberts. Any takers?

nelke: MADHURI DIXIT "I'm very lucky to have married Ram." (Source : www.indya.com) Madhuri Dixit looks even more gorgeous as Mrs Nene. Tight fitting jeans and flowing tresses, she has me transfixed at the door of her Iris Park apartment when I go to meet her for this interview. She's lost all those extra pounds, her million dollar face gleams with joy and her tinkling laughter reverberates through the house. "How do you expect me not to lose weight?" She flashes her famous smile. "On our honeymoon itself my husband Ram was teaching how to do abdominal crunches. He's a health freak. Whenever Ram gets a holiday we spend it on some outdoor sports. We generally go cycling, trekking up in the mountains, or snorkeling. I've even attempted a skiing trip with him. The fact that I fell down umpteen times and made an utter fool of myself is another story. But it was great fun because I was not conscious of the fact ke mujhe koi dekh raha hai or that I'm Madhuri Dixit. I found it hard, initially to lose my inhibitions. I just couldn't get up and go for a walk with Ram. I was not used to any freedom of action back in India or even abroad. But once I overcame that, I had a ball." What's a typical day in the life of Mrs Nene? That is, when you are with your husband in America, in your house. Well, Mrs Nene gets up at five in the morning. Ram has to be at work by 6 o'clock, so my day begins early. I like to give him his morning cup of tea, not that he is a tea lover. In fact before we met, he never had tea but I'm very much a chai person. Ram still has only black tea. Next, I make breakfast for him, a normal fare of eggs and toast. After which he goes to work and I promptly go back to sleep. By mid-morning I would have finished cleaning the house. I love to sweep, swab, do the dishes and hoover the place. Since I have the whole morning to myself, I go grocery shopping to the malls and try to have a meal ready for Ram when he gets back from work. We have an early dinner as Ram is really hungry after a long day, then the rest of the evening is ours. We chat, since there is so much to know about one another. At other times Ram plays the guitar and he is really good at it so the evening is touched by sheer magic. Have there been any major goof-ups vis-а-vis your cooking? Oh yes! Major ones! See I'm no cook. I know that and I think Ram knows that by now too. Initially I managed it to the extent of making bed-tea and breakfast. That's easy. Even making dal chawal was not that difficult. But one day I got a bit carried away and tried my hand at prawn curry. I put the prawns in first and main unko bhunti rahi, during dinner when Ram put them in his mouth they were like chewing gum. The curry was horrible too. But Ram was a great sport and didn't mind it; he just laughed his guts out. Since then, I've been relegated to a junior position in the kitchen. Ram, who is an exceptional cook, now teaches me the fine art of cooking. As for me I refrain from any more adventures with my culinary skills. Even when I'm alone, I make do with a sandwich. Waise bhi ek aadmi ke liye kaun baneyga. Being a doctor, his working hours must be erratic? When he is not on call, he is at home in the evenings. But there are times when he stays back at the hospital and doesn't come home in the night too. The first time it happened, I was very scared. I've never slept alone at night in my life. My mom or my dad have always been with me. This was the first time for me. So I kept my bedroom lights switched on for the whole night. Over and above that I snuggled Ram's two pet cats into my razai and only then I could sleep. What about kids? Are you planning a family? Not right now. It's not possible because of my commitments. It would be unfair on my part if any producer suffered on my account. In my entire career I've never let my producers down. I see no reason for it to happen now. I'll have to figure out a work plan before I decide to get pregnant. Will that mean an end to your career and a farewell to the Film Industry? That's a decision that Ram has left entirely to me. One of us will have to be home when we have kids so I guess it will have to be me since Ram is so busy himself. In any case I'd want to be with my children. Moreover it will have to be a very exceptional film or a role for me to even consider doing. Let's see what happens in the future. What about your in-laws, are they OK about you continuing to work? I'm very blessed you know to be married into a wonderful family. They are a small unit of four and now I'm the fifth. Ram's the only son. I have a sister-in-law, who is highly educated and a well-placed professional. Each person is into his own thing without interfering in the other's life. There are no restrictions, no untoward expectations of me as the bahu of the house. I wear anything from a pair of shorts to a traditional saree. I love wearing a mangal sutra and sindhoor in my maang, in fact my mother-in-law was very surprised at it. They all have the right mix of Indian values and the western culture. They really have no idea about the Indian Film Industry or my so-called stardom. They are simple people for whom I'm a professional actress. Period. In fact my father-in-law has started showing curiosity now. He surfs the net for any information on me and lets me know about it. My mother-in-law on the other hand told Ram very sweetly that I was a very good dancer and he should watch my movies. She strongly recommended my song Que sera sera from Pukar. Promptly a DVD was brought home and everyone watched it together. Ram of course got impatient halfway, because he fails to understand why we actors sing so many songs in our films. When I compare them to the old Hollywood musicals, he just laughs and is not convinced. Do you think the differences in upbringing and background or even professions works well for your marriage? I think the reason we are so perfectly matched is because of the different worlds we come from. In my work area there is always room for a second take but these guys are not allowed a take-two. It's a job full of responsibility and I respect Ram for that. In fact I've accompanied him for what is termed as a 'Harvest Run' in medical parlance. It's when someone dies and his body organs are transplanted into another needy person. The whole process has to be finished in a time span of four hours. The emergency signals start flashing and the choppers hover above you to airlift the team of doctors. Everyone starts getting ready shouting instructions at one another while they put on their coats and collect the equipment to get into the ambulance. In the midst of all this, I was with Ram. I saw the whole thing, the patient, the beating heart-organ, which believe me doesn't look anything like the ones we draw or see in the comic books and strewn dead bodies and blood all over the place. I thought I'd faint, but I stuck on. It was the most humbling experience of my life. I marvel at the precision with which the whole task was completed. I think most of Ram's personality stems from his professional ethics. He sees people as real, he respects and values life and thus is an emotionally responsible person. Believe me, I'm very lucky to have him. A perfect co-star if I may add. Couldn't have asked for more in my life.

wichy: nelke Спасибочки огромное за интервью. Мне почему-то кажется, что брак Мадхури - классический индийский, вероятнее всего, его устроили, но сейчас в нем любовь и согласие - по крайней мере, мне кажется, она достаточно умная женщина, чтобы сделать его таким.

Lo: wichy пишет: Мне почему-то кажется, что брак Мадхури - классический индийский, вероятнее всего, его устроили, А я читала, что они чуть бы ни в супермаркете каком-то познакомились в америке... И он совершенно не знал, кто она такая, потому что очень американезированный инд. парень, и даже инд. фильмы не смотрел..

nelke: wichy не знаю, как на счет "устроили" , но вот с этим согласна на все 100: wichy пишет: но сейчас в нем любовь и согласие - по крайней мере, мне кажется, она достаточно умная женщина, чтобы сделать его таким
