Madhuri Dixit by Gautam Rajadhyaksha. Much has been written about the collaboration between Madhuri Dixit and Saroj Khan, her frequent collaborations with actors like Anil Kapoor and Shahrukh Khan... but the most fruitful, flawless friendship she shared was with the gentle giant of photography, the late great Gautam Rajadhyaksha. They experimented with looks, style, lighting, poses... With the aid of the mast of makeup, Mickey Contractor. So many of Gautam da's photo essays, books had Madhuri on the cover. In her, he found his perfect muse. In him, a mentor. Fate took him so suddenly - Madhuri was in the US and couldn't even attend his funeral or prayers in time. Alas. A rich, photogenic chapter ended so abruptly.
