The actress is mother to sons - Arin and Raayan with her doctor husband Shriram Madhav Nene
Mumbai:
Madhuri Dixit's fame as a popular Bollywood actress hasn't cast its shadow on her sons Arin and Raayan, who she says are unaffected by their mother's stardom.
The 46-year-old, who is raising both her children in Mumbai with her doctor husband Shriram Madhav Nene likes it that her children get excited to see her on TV.
"I have no idea if they understand it and I like it that way. I want them to be as innocent as possible. Even today they come running to me and say that mom you are on TV. My little one comes to me and says, 'really are you that famous'. But they are untouched by it and that's the way I like it," said Madhuri.
The Hum Aapke Hain Kaun actress is judging the current season of a dance reality show on TV along with filmmakerKaran Johar and choreographer-director Remo D'Souza.
Madhuri, a prolific dancer herself, wants youngsters to take up classical dancing as it is closer to Indian culture.
"There is more of western dancing coming in because I think today youth wants everything fast and it is easier to learn. Our classical is where the whole treasure lies. Once you learn classical you can learn any form of dance. So I think it is very important to have that base. I would urge people to learn more classical," she said.
After her marriage, Madhuri relocated to the US for almost a decade. In 2011, she shifted back to Mumbai along with her family.
She is working on two Bollywood films - Gulaab Gang and Dedh Ishqiya.
