Happy b'day Madhuri Dixit: 12 best performances of the dancing diva

While she is known for her brilliant performances in films like Beta, Anjaam and Hum Apke Hai Kaun, it isn’t her acting skills that caught the audiences’ eyes in the beginning. Dixit’s claim to fame was her flawless dance moves, the glimpse of which, cine-goers saw in 1988 with Tezaab’s Ek Do Teen. After the film became a hit, there was no looking back for the actress. And now, after twenty six years, although she is one of the most loved actresses of Bollywood, she is still etched as ‘The Dancing Diva’ in all Hindi movie lovers’ memories.
