She is a legend but in the 90s movies they did she always looked older than them tbh. Be it with Aamir in Dil, with Salman in HAHK or SRK in DTPH.


She looked much better with Anil, Sanjay Dutt or Jackie Shroff imho. Juhi Chawla despite being the same age looked way better with SRK and Aamir, not sure why?

Yeah, Madhuri never looked quite right with the Khans. It was like she was the big actress at that time so she had to be paired with them even though it didn't look that good. People were used to seeing her with Anil and Sanjay. She had a more mature presence and personality too.

Juhi is bubbly and child-like so she seems younger by default.

Alia is going to have the same problem going forward. She's been pairing up with men so much older than her that now people won't accept her with someone like Ishaan Khatter even though they are like the same age.

Madhuri was a much bigger star than Aamir at the time of Dil

Madhuri was a much bigger star than Salman at the time of HAHK

SRK was a much bigger star than Madhuri at the time of DTPH


I love SRK and Madhuri together in Dil Toh Pagal Hai.

True, she always looked rather mature in her 90s movies unlike Juhi who had the cute look going for her. I did like SRK's chemistry with Madhuri in Devdas though, maybe because he looked older there and it wasn't the typical romance story.

OMG ...I have said this so many times.....when the Khans were younger....Madhuri looked like their older sister...she looked so much mature than them....while she looked better with slightly older actors at that time like Anil Kapoor, SD etc....Khans were such baby faced...all three of them...awww...😆

Honestly all 3 looked younger than their age in the 90s while Maduri looked mature so the pairings were a bit weird (although not bad since they are all good actors).

Agreed, in fact I've actually thought this for a long time... it seemed especially obvious towards the end of her run in heroine roles too...

I suspect she is actually a bit older than she lets on, certainly looking at her in Lajja or DTPH makes me feel that way... like compare her to Juhi (who is supposedly the exact same age) in Yes Boss or PBDHH and see how much older MD seems in comparison...

Bet then again she looks so good nowadays I feel no, she can't be any older than the age she says she is 😆

So maybe she just looked mature naturally and sorted that out through fillers along with better lifestyle now, it's impossible to say haha.
