'Tell him it's...' Madhuri Dixit was madly in love with Sanjay Dutt, but they allegedly broke up due to..., his sister then...

She became one of the highest-paid actresses and stole audiences hearts with her blockbuster films. Despite building a strong identity in the film industry, her rumoured affair with Bollywood's 'bad boy' Sanjay Dutt grabbed massive media buzz and became one of the most-discussed about topics in Bollywood's history. Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt captivated audiences with their magnetic chemistry in films like Khatron Ke Khiladi, Thanedaar, Saajan, Khalnayak, and Ilaaka. However, off the cameras, their emotional intimacy felt more than just professional relationship. Despite Sanjay Dutt being married at the time, he got attracted to Madhuri, during her wife Richa's undergoing treatment for a brain tumour in the United States. During her absence, it was said that that they grew increasingly close. However, the situation got complicated when his wife returned to India and was heartbroken to witness the state of their marriage. Despite Richa's efforts to rebuild their relationship, the emotional distance between her and Dutt only intensified. The End of Madhuri Dixit and Sanjay Dutt's rumoured romance In 1993, their romance took a turn when Sanjay Dutt was arrested under the TADA Act for illegal possession of arms in connection with the Mumbai Blasts. Reports claim that Madhuri distanced herself from him following his arrest and even stopped taking his calls. According to a report in Stardust magazine, Dixit firmly conveyed a message to Dutt through his sister, saying, 'Please tell Sanju not to call me up ever. Tell him that it's all over.' Her alleged response reflected that Dixit chose to move on, focusing on her career and reputation. Over the years, Dixit consistently squashed the rumours about her alleged relationship with Dutt. While, the actress chose not to engage with the media buzz and maintain a dignified silence about her past, Sanjay once hinted his affection for her. During an event in 2017, when Sanjay was asked which actor he would love to marry if given a choice, he candidly responded, 'I would like to marry Madhuri Dixit.' His remark sparked fresh conversation, but Madhuri chose to distance herself from the speculations, priortising her family and career.
