Madhuri Dixit and Anil Kapoor were among the most successful on-screen pairs in the 90s. They gave several hits together, including Ram Lakhan, Tezaab, Khel, and Jamai Raja. Recently, filmmaker Indra Kumar, who worked with the two actors in the 1992 film Beta, revealed they have good on-screen chemistry and are friends off-screen. At the same time, he mentioned that Anil Kapoor goes crazy whenever he hears the actress's name. 

In a new interview with Siddharth Kannan, filmmaker Indra Kumar discussed the bond between Madhuri Dixit and Anil Kapoor. He shared inside details about their friendship and admitted that they deeply respected and admired each other. Kumar revealed, "Anil and Madhuri are great friends. They share a completely different chemistry. They respected each other so much."

The filmmaker added that the Malang actor always cared about Madhuri and held her in high regard. He also always motivated her when needed, which was reflected in their impeccable on-screen chemistry. 

Kumar further mentioned how Anil continues to admire his former co-star and close friend to date, saying, "More than a co-star, he was like a giver to her. To date, Anil goes crazy when he hears Madhuri's name. Puch ke dekh lena kabhi.” (Ask him anytime.)
