, I was quite the media darling.
Quoted in Verve: The Spirit of Today's Woman (page 74)
For me dancing is not just moving your arms and legs but basically it's a very spiritual experience. It's part of me and a second nature to me. You can say it is in my blood.

About this person
Born in Mumbai in 1967, Dixit debuted in 1984 with Abodh and spent years cycling through flops before Tezaab in 1988 broke her through. The next decade brought the massive romantic dramas that made her a fixture - Dil, Beta, Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!, Dil To Pagal Hai - each a top-grosser, each earning her a Filmfare for Best Actress. She took supporting work in Devdas in 2002, stepped back for a family hiatus, then returned intermittently: a comeback attempt with Aaja Nachle in 2007, scattered films like Dedh Ishqiya in 2014, television judging stints on Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa and Dance Deewane. By 2024 she was still appearing in blockbusters like Bhool Bhulaiyaa 3, decades past the peak but never quite offstage.
