Description
A self-confessed Madhuri Dixit fan, the legendary painter first came to be associated with Bollywood in the 90s when he claimed to have seen the Madhuri-Salman Khan starrer Hum Aapke Hain Koun 73 times! So drunk on her beauty he was that he decided to debut as a filmmaker with 'Gaja Gamini' and make her a part of his larger-than-life canvas. He made a series of paintings depicting the actress in various moods.
In an interview dated 2004 Husain says, "When I saw Madhuri in 'Hum Aap Ke Hain Koun' I found that she is the object of my imagination. I was on the lookout for such a beauty. Any other person couldn't see whatever I saw in Madhuri. I decided to shoot the camera in my movie titled 'Gajgamini'. During my first meeting with her, I found her an innocent and bubbly. Though I had seen these qualities the on screen, yet I was excited to find that these were natural in her character. So I decided to draw these qualities on the canvas. To a great extent I succeeded in doing it. All her traits can be seen in my painting."
