Fan encounters can be scary for stars, and many actors have opened up about their most memorable ones. Madhuri Dixit, being the star and loved actor she was in the 1980s and 1990s, it's obvious that she would have had many. Interestingly, much to the shock of her fans and the audience, Madhuri Dixit left the country and settled in the US following her marriage, just when her career was at its peak. When the Mrs Deshpande actress appeared on the latest episode of Sit With Hitlist, she opened up about her most strange fan encounter in India and later in the US.
Madhuri Dixit recalls her craziest fan encounter
Recalling her most scarriest fan encounter, which she says forced her to relocate to Juhu from Andheri East over security concerns, she shares, "So I used to live in Andheri first, Tezaab had released, and I was still living there. One day, one man turned up. He came to my house and rang the doorbell. He had come with all his suitcases and everything. He was a big, elderly guy, and my mom opened the door. He says, 'Madhuri ji hai.' She says, 'Why?' He replied, 'Unhone bula hai mujhe adopt karnege.' She asked, 'Why? Kyun?' He answered, 'Woh mujhe aaj godh lene wale hai.'"
"And he would not leave. So then we had to get our neighbours, and we said, please do something. Then they had to gently explain to him and somehow they got rid of him. They put him in a cab and told him to go back to where he came from."
Madhuri Dixit about fan encounters in the US
Recalling fan encounters she shares, “Of course, Denver also has Indians. So once in a while, I used to get spotted. And slowly, as the word spread that I'm living in Denver, people started coming in cars, passing my house, going slow, saying ‘This is the house?’ and trying to see if I'm there, if I'm doing something in the garage or if the garage is open and I'm there.”
She shared a funny anecdote when her neighbours, unaware of her identity and stardom, offered to call the cops due to security reasons. Madhuri shared, “My neighbours didn't know who I was. We never told them. For them, he (Dr Shriram Nene) is a heart surgeon and a family with kids living in the house. My neighbour, who lives opposite me, called me and he said, ‘You know what, I think somebody's casing your house. I saw this car pass four or five times, and they're slowing down near your house. They're kind of keeping an eye on your house. Do you want me to call the cops because I'm very concerned? Somebody's trying to rob you.’”
She then revealed that it was then that she had to reveal her identity. “I had to explain that this is what is going on and they just want to maybe meet me or just spot me in the house,” she told them.
How Madhuri Dixit’s identity was busted
They were naturally shocked and asked why she kept her identity hidden. Why didn't you tell us? They then insisted on watching her movies, enquiring about the kind of movies she starred in and more.
Sharing how one of her neighbours got addicted to her movies, Madhuri revealed, “My neighbour just got addicted to the movies. He would keep asking, ‘Do you have another one?’ every weekend because he loved musicals. And so the word got around.”
