The two stunning actresses, whom we saw together in the hit 1997 musical drama Dil To Pagal Hai, met in Sri Lanka on Sunday for the Hiru Golden Film Awards. Here is a picture to prove the reunion:
They both looked stunning of course!
Karisma wore a gorgeous monochromatic gown...
While Madhuri glowed in an all-white number...
Dil To Pagal Hai was the story of Rahul (played by Shah Rukh Khan), a dance troupe director who searches for a lead female dancer to make his show perfect. He zeroes in on Maya/Pooja (played by Madhuri) and falls in love with her, ignoring his friend Nisha (played by Karisma) who is a pretty good dancer herself. The love triangle, full of jealousy, great songs and dance made the film one of the greatest Yash Chopra films ever.
Watch Madhuri and Karisma in that classic dance-off scene from the movie:
