Considering the movie was centered around dancing
i find it weird how a dancer like madhuri went under utilized

she had dances but those do not do justice to her or her character either who was a dancer herself

i feel like karisma was given more chances to shine with a solo dance number etc but madhuri wasn't..even if you consider chak dhom dhom..that is not challenging for some one of madhuri's calibre

i am not saying only coz of madhuri but also coz her character herself was shown as a dancer then why nothing challenging was given which she would have nailed to the next level..

thoughts?

Madhuri is a fabulous dancer. but whenever you put her in a face-off, she loses -> Karishma (DTPH) or Ash (dola re)

So she wasn't underutilised as such. She is a good dancer but the way they talk about her ---- vast vast exaggeration

Again, not saying that she isn't good. But there have been equally good dancing actresses who do not get half the credit she does.

It must be confusing for a director to use someone like Madhuri.
She is an exceptionally talented actor and an extraordinarily amazing Dancer.
I guess Yash Chopra wanted to showcase the romance more than the dance.
If she was given a dance number then she would have easily overshadowed Karishma thus it might have been a conscious decision.

Whatever it is I do agree she was hugely under utilized.

Devdas makes up for it though 😃
