Mumbai, Dec 18 (NationPress) Actress Madhuri Dixit discussed the significant transformation in filmmaking from her first film 'Abodh' to her upcoming drama 'Mrs Deshpande'.

In a candid conversation with IANS, she noted that the industry is now much more structured compared to the earlier days.

When asked about her nearly 40-year journey in the industry and the changes from 'Abodh' to 'Mrs Deshpande', the 'Dhak Dhak' girl expressed, “Back then, there were only about five or six well-organized producers, like Yash Chopra, B R Chopra, Subhash Ghai, Rajshri Productions, and a few others; the rest of the industry was rather chaotic. Nowadays, everything is quite organized. We used to rely heavily on spontaneity in those days; today, we have the ability to thoroughly prepare for our roles. You now receive a script along with comforts like RVs for relaxation between takes. In contrast, we often sat in the sun with just an umbrella to shield us.”

“Today, there’s a lot more focus on the comfort of the actor, and because the characters are so well-prepared, we are aware of our costumes and looks ahead of time. We engage in extensive preparation for roles, including reading sessions, which were nonexistent back then,” Madhuri added.

During the dialogue, the 'Hum Aapke Hain Koun' star also explained her limited appearances on screen lately.

She shared her desire to concentrate on projects that spark her enthusiasm.

The 'Devdas' actress concluded, “I want to take on exciting roles that make me eager to go to work each day, whether it's for a film or a series. I wish to collaborate with filmmakers like Nagesh Kukunoor, who I trust will do justice to the characters they create.”
