New Delhi: Amitabh Bachchan, who is called the superstar of the century, and Madhuri Dixit, who has a beautiful smile, have their own identity in the industry. Both are well-known names in Hindi cinema, who have achieved recognition and success on the basis of their acting skills. But have you ever noticed that this pair has never appeared together on the big screen?

If two superstars come together in a film, it becomes like icing on the cake for the fans. The makers longed to make a film with Amitabh Bachchan and Madhuri Dixit, but their wish remained unfulfilled. Madhuri and Amitabh worked together in the song 'Tere Pyar Ka Ras Zara Chakhna' from 'Bade Miyan Chote Miyan'. But the 'Dhak-Dhak girl' was with Amitabh only in this song. They never did any film together. There is a problem behind this, which we will tell you about here.

Got a chance in many films

Amitabh and Madhuri got a chance to work together in many films, but things never worked out. This pair got their first chance to appear together in the film 'Bandua'. This movie was to be made by JP Dutta, but due to some reason the shooting of the film could not start. Apart from this, they also had an offer for Rituparno Ghosh's film. He wanted to cast Amitabh Bachchan for the role of Satyajit Ray and Madhuri Dixit for the role of Madhabi Mukherjee. But after the Ray family expressed their objection, this film was also shelved.

Did Anil Kapoor spoil things?

The 90s was the time when Madhuri's films were failing one after the other. Then Anil Kapoor agreed to work with her when no one wanted to work with her. Madhuri and Anil's pairing was a hit in many films. It is said that due to Madhuri's increasing popularity, she was once again offered a film with Big B, but Anil Kapoor advised her not to do the film. The reason for this was that he did not want Madhuri's pairing to fit with anyone else.

Madhuri also listened to Anil. But then a time came when Anil Kapoor's films started to flop. Then Madhuri started avoiding doing films with him and started looking for an opportunity to do films with Amitabh, who had become a superstar by that time. Madhuri also got this opportunity. That first opportunity was given to her by director Tinu Anand in the film Shinakht in 1988, but during the shooting itself something happened that Big B got angry with Madhuri and they never worked together again.

Amitabh had broken Madhuri's arrogance

It is said that Madhuri was showing a lot of arrogance during the shooting of the film. She would repeatedly make changes in the script, which annoyed Amitabh. Only five days had passed since the film started when Madhuri felt that her role was weaker than Amitabh's. Whereas, Tinnu Anand had explained to her what the role of an actress is in Amitabh's film, despite this she started pressuring for changes in the script. Amitabh, annoyed by this statement of the actress, swore not to work with her again and this film too was shelved.
