Bollywood's dancing diva Madhuri Dixit-Nene, who turns 49 on Sunday, will not be working on her birthday this year, but when she returns to the set of dance reality show "So You Think You Can Dance 'Ab India Ki Baari'", where she appears as a judge, she will be treated to a post-birthday party.
"Madhuri is unavailable now for the shoot. So, the team is planning to celebrate her birthday on May 17 and throw a party once she is back on set," said a source.
Ace choreographer Terence Lewis, who appears as a judge alongside Madhuri and choreographer Bosco Martis, said: "I would like to wish the dancing diva a very happy birthday. She has been an epitome of dance in the industry. I hope she has a great year filled with dance and happiness and I am looking forward to celebrating with her on the set."
Not only the judges, but even the hosts of the &TV show -- actor Rithvik Dhanjani and Mouni Roy -- are excited for Madhuri's birthday.
Rithvik said: "I want to wish the most beautiful lady on earth a very happy birthday. She brings a smile to lots of people in India and is an inspiration to millions. I don't think anyone can even come close to the beauty of Madhuri Dixit."
Mouni added: "I look at Madhuri Dixit and know that the world's working right. May this day be the beginning for an even greater year for her. I pray that she will always be gratified with love health and happiness."
