Quotes
Madhuri Dixit
Bollywood actress known for her roles in films like 'Devdas' and 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun'.
“I think at that time there were only five or six very organized producers, like Yash Chopra, B R Chopra, Subhash Ghai, Rajshri Productions, and a few more, and the rest was pretty unorganized. Today, it is very organized. Back then, we relied more on spontaneity; today, we can prepare for a role. You get a script, along with amenities such as the RVs, where you can chill after every shot or get ready. At that time, we did not have all this; we used to sit under the sun, with an umbrella over our heads.”

“When we were shooting in Ooty, we used to find some jungle to go to. And then our hairdressers and all used to stand with all shawls. I don't want to remember those days. They were quite... But through it all, I think we enjoyed ourselves. I mean, we loved what we did. And we all came together because of that love. And we were ready to make those sacrifices. At that time, we didn't even know it was sacrifices. It was way of life at that time.”
