Madhuri Dixit Nene
Madhuri Dixit Nene turns a year younger and lovelier today. She's not known to host lavish birthday parties, so it will be a quiet affair with mother, Snehlata, husband Ram and sons, Arin and Rayaan. She was tied up with her Marathi production, 15 August, which dropped on Netflix. Set in a Mumbai chawl, the film followed the course of a series of mishaps that occur on a single day, as its residents prepare for the Independence Day flag-hoisting ceremony.
The film revolved around how the course of the day unfolds on a not-so-typical Independence Day -- when a lover, in his quest to win over his beloved, ends up creating complete mayhem, compelling all the residents to unite and help him out of his mess. The film highlighted what independence, love and affection mean to the residents of the colony.
