When Madhuri got 1 crore rupees for getting intimate with Vinod Khanna, there was a lot of ruckus in the industry about the scene..


Madhuri Dixit used to rule Hindi cinema in the 80-90s. Every director and biggest superstar was eager to work with him. But today we will talk about that film of the actress in which she herself created a ruckus by kissing a very big actor.

  • We are talking about the superhit film 'Dayavan'. In which Vinod Khanna and Feroze Khan were seen with the actress. Many bold scenes were shown between Madhuri and Vinod Khanna in this film. You will be surprised to know that Madhuri was paid a huge fee of Rs 1 crore for this film at that time.The reason behind this is that the film's director and veteran actor Feroze Khan did not want Madhuri to do anything about any scene in the film. Because through this film, Vinod Khanna also wanted to re-establish himself in the industry.
  • On the other hand, when the film was released on the big screen, Vinod and Madhuri's kissing scene created a ruckus in it. After seeing so many bold scenes in the film, everyone started criticizing Madhuri.The ruckus about the film had increased so much that a notice was also sent to direct Feroze Khan to remove those scenes from the film. But Feroze Khan did not listen to anyone and did not cut a single scene from the film.
  • Now Madhuri is very less active in the acting line. The actress was last seen in the web series 'Fame Game'. Apart from this, she is also seen as a judge of reality shows.
