Did Suresh Wadkar Reject Madhuri Dixit’s Marriage Proposal for Being ‘Too Thin’? Singer Reveals
Did Suresh Wadkar reject Madhuri Dixit - A long-standing rumor has circulated for years, suggesting that singer Suresh Wadkar declined a marriage proposal from actor Madhuri Dixit due to her being “too thin.” This speculation has finally been addressed by Wadkar himself during a recent interview on The Lallantop, where he clarified the truth behind the claim.
Suresh’s Response to the Rumor
Wadkar dismissed the rumor with humor, stating that he never received a formal proposal from Madhuri’s family. In a candid moment, he shared, “Hey bhagwan, woh Madhuri wali afwah! Madhuri toh mujhe kisi din na... jitne andar natural baal hain woh bhi noch legi. Bahut meri achhi friend hai. Industry ki colleague hai. Mujhe bahut pasand bhi hai woh. Yeh shaitani Archana Puran Singh ki hai. Woh bhi meri behen hai, bahut pyaar karti hai. Pata nahi kahaan se sun ke unhone TV pe bol diya. Us waqt se mere jitne interviews hote hain, sab mein yeh question poocha jaata hai.”
“Oh god, that Madhuri rumour! One day Madhuri will pull out even the few natural hairs I have left. She is a very good friend and colleague from the industry. I like her a lot. This mischief is Archana Puran Singh’s doing. She is like a sister to me and loves me dearly. I don’t know where she heard it from, but she mentioned it on television. Since then, I get asked this question in every interview.”
When asked if he had ever discussed the rumor with Madhuri, Wadkar explained that he never spoke to her about it. He added that there might have been some initial inquiries from her family during a period when he was considered one of the industry’s most eligible bachelors.
“Ho sakta hai us waqt koi aisa kissa hua hoga. Unke father ki taraf se koi inquiry hui hogi. Yeh likh ke aata hai ki Suresh Wadkar ne usko isliye mana kiya kyunki woh bahut patli thi. Patli toh thi woh. Agar abodh picture aap dekhenge toh usmein aisi patli thi ladki. Aap tak baat pahunchi nahi, main kaise mana karta? Tab tak Padma meri zindagi mein aa chuki thi. Padma meri student rahi hai.”
Madhuri Dixit married Shriram Nene, a cardiovascular surgeon from Los Angeles, California, on October 17, 1999, in a traditional ceremony held at her elder brother’s home in Southern California. The actor recently revealed that while her brother introduced her to Nene, they dated for six months before deciding to tie the knot. The couple welcomed their son Arin in 2003 and Ryan in 2005.
