BREAKING: Madhuri Dixit plays a homosexual character in Amazon Prime Video’s Maaja Maa
Apart from actress Madhuri Dixit, Maja Maa also stars Rajit Kapur, Barkha Singh, Gajraj Rao, Ritwik Bhowmik, and Simone Singh. It is directed by Anand Tiwari.
It has now come to the fore that Maja Maa is not a typical family film at all. A source has told that Actress Madhuri Dixit has played a lesbian character in Maja Maa in a stellar manner. As she prepares for her son’s wedding, how her sexual orientation adds to loads of conflict, madness, and entertainment is the crux of the film.
Apart from actress Madhuri Dixit, Maja Maa also stars Rajit Kapur, Barkha Singh, Gajraj Rao, Ritwik Bhowmik, and the Simone Singh. It is directed by the Anand Tiwari.
The source continued, It goes without saying that the gay element as a whole is clearly handled sensitively, barring any headline in Maja Maa. Time has changed. More recently too, Bhumi Pednekar played the character of a lesbian in Badhaai Do and her portrayal was also beautifully portrayed. And in the same way, actress Madhuri Dixit’s character has also been handled very sensitively in Maja Maa. That’s why a star like him has agreed to sign for such out-of-the-box parts.
The most interesting thing is that this is probably not the first time that actress Madhuri Dixit is playing a homosexual character. In Dedh Ishqiya (2014), it was implied that he and Huma Qureshi’s characters were lovers. However, the makers never clarified it at all and left it to the audience to explain. Meanwhile, a few months back also, in his much-loved web series, The Fame Game, Avinash aka Avi (Lakshvir Singh Saran) has been shown to be gay and his mother, played by the actress Madhuri. She knows about it and accepts it wholeheartedly. It is yet to be seen whether actress Madhuri Dixit’s family and loved ones in Mama Maa finally accept her sexual orientation with open arms.
