Mumbai: It has often been seen in Bollywood films that when a pair becomes a hit in one film, they are immediately paired up in another film. Take Ranveer Singh-Alia Bhatt for example, after the success of ‘Gully Boy’, the pair once again rocked the theaters with ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’. But, there was one such superhit duo in the Hindi film world, who did not work together again after giving a superhit film. The stars are Sunny Deol and Madhuri Dixit, who worked together in superhit films like ‘Tridev’, but have never been seen together since then. Let us tell you what was the reason behind it.
Sunny Deol and Madhuri Dixit worked together in the 1989 film Tridev, directed by Rajeev Rai. The songs of the film Gali Gali Mein, Tirchi Topi Wale were huge hits. Along with this, the pair of Sunny and Madhuri was also a super hit. Apart from these two stars, Jackie Shroff, Naseeruddin Shah, Sonam and Sangeeta Bijlani were also in lead roles in the film. The film was well received by the audience and won 3 Filmfare Awards in 1990. But still the pair of Madhuri and Sunny were never seen together again on the big screen.
In fact, in those days when Sunny Deol was emerging as an action star, Madhuri Dixit was winning the hearts of the audience with her dancing. Sunny’s focus was more on action films. He was entertaining the audience by being an angry young man and Madhuri was focused on dance, romance, comedy and family drama. In such a situation, the two had few projects worth working on together.
Apart from Sunny Deol and Madhuri, Tridev also had stars like Naseeruddin Shah and Jackie Shroff.
At the same time, apart from Sunny Deol, stars like Anil Kapoor, Sanjay Dutt were also quickly gaining ground among the audience. Madhuri was getting more film offers with stars like Anil Kapoor and Sanjay Dutt than Sunny. Madhuri also did not let these offers slip away. However, Sunny and Madhuri may have worked together in a film or two, but their friendship continues even today. Some time ago both were seen together in a dance reality show, during which they danced together on a song from their super hit film Tridev.
