The lovely actress has her statue at Madame Tussauds Museum in London, the Museum also houses statues of Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, Hrithik Roshan and Salman Khan.
The pretty actress once had fallen for Bollywood’s bad guy Sanjay Dutt. Apparently their fondness for each other grew on the sets of Saajan. The slander didn’t go down well, as Madhuri‘s parents did not approve of their alleged relationship.
