Birthday special: Madhuri Dixit, the 'Dhak Dhak' girl
The dancing diva is having a quiet birthday celebration with her family today. The year gone by was special to her, considering her online dance academy is going good. "The year has gone really well. I am thankful to my family, friends and my fans for their love and support," Madhuri said.
"I got my birthday gift day before yesterday (May 13) as we launched 'Dance with Madhuri' Version 2 and a mobile app for the same. It's my wish to take dance at every doorstep. Through this (e-learning platform that allows people to learn dance), we are trying to give the best to everyone," she said.
For Madhuri, the most memorable birthday gifts are the ones that she gets from her two sons. "The birthday cards that they make for me are special. Besides that, I remember when they were like four-six years old, they went out with their dad and brought a beautiful bracelet for me," the actress said.
