Madhuri Dixit-Nene is the queen ruling over our hearts since the late 80s with her smile, charm, grace and poise. There are many songs to her credit and very few can emote just the way she does. While she achieved all that already, as she turns 51, Madhuri is now fulfilling a bucket list of her fans. Here are some of those:

Working with Sanjay Dutt again

Madhuri and Sanjay were quite a name during their ‘Khalnayak’ times, and after their alleged break-up, we thought we would never be able to see them again. But they let bygones be bygones and are coming together for ‘Kalank’, thus making all fans happy.

Last year, Madhuri was training Varun Dhawan and Alia Bhatt for her ‘Thanedaar’ song ‘Tamma Tamma’ which was being recreated for ‘Badrinath Ki Dulhania’ and this year, she will be working with them in a movie!

KJo her new BFF

Guess who is responsible for all this happening? None other than Karan Johar! Karan has turned producer for her Marathi debut film ‘Bucket List’ and is also producing ‘Kalank’. He is often seen bonding with Madhuri, which is expected seeing the number of films they’re doing together.

International TV project

Going the Priyanka Chopra way, Madhuri-Dixit Nene is all set for an International TV project which will narrate her life experiences in USA. Interestingly, Madhuri suggested Priyanka’s name for the project. Currently, there wouldn’t be any better person since Priyanka is quite a name in the West and is also producing movies simultaneously.

Turns producer with Marathi film

Not only is she debuting with a Marathi film, but has also produced one called ‘15th August’, which is slated to release this month. However the film in spite of being on patriotism is a family entertainer, just like one of her upcoming films ‘Total Dhamaal’.
