Madhoo was among the leading heroines of the 1990s, starring in her most memorable role in Mani Ratnam's Roja (1992).
After a mid-career hiatus in the early 2000s and most of the 2010s, Madhoo is now trying to re-establish herself.
Starring in last year's well-received Tamil series Sweet Kaaram Coffee, Madhoo's performance garnered her her some positive attention.
Her next is Director Soham Shah's Kartam Bhugtam, which also stars Shreyas Talpade and Vijay Raaz.
"One day I was at a family lunch with Hemaji (Hema Malini, her paternal aunt) when she was planning her film Tell Me O Kkhuda, and she told me, 'Come for a family holiday and do this little role for me'. I said, okay. I wore makeup and knew that I had to be back in the movies again,"
Are you choosy with the kind of films and roles you do? I follow the principle of not running or chasing.
I want to live the life of an artist and keep myself busy doing what I love. I don't even have a PR agency to represent me.
People who come to me with good stories and who really want me, who like me, who have faith in my ability, that's what excites I don't want to be busy for 365 days. When a good opportunity comes, I will accept it happily.
Since Kartam Bhugtam is about good and bad karma, do you believe in the saying what goes around comes around?
Yeah. But I don't believe that in a negative way because the theory of karma and destiny is not so simplistic.
I believe strongly in destiny and that is why I don't have any insecurity.
I put my best foot forward in any situation. I'm very calm and peaceful in my life.
What was the reason behind quitting movies? What kept you busy during that time?
I was doing a lot of good work Telugu, in Tamil, Malayalam.
Kannada, If you see my filmography, you will know.Since I was born and brought up in Bombay, I wanted to do more Hindi films.
