Madhoo shares the happy news that her elder daughter is all set to get married
Mumbai, July 12
It might be hard to believe, but veteran actress Madhoo is soon going to be a mother-in-law. Speaking exclusively to, the 'Roja' actress revealed that her elder daughter will be getting married shortly.
When asked what career she aspires for her daughter, Madhoo shared that her elder one is currently not thinking about work as she is focused on her upcoming nuptials. She told IANS, "My older one is going to get married soon. So, right now, I am sure she is not thinking of work. She is in the La La land."
Talking about her younger daughter, Madhoo said that although her daughter initially wanted to become an actor like her, after exploring a little, she decided to shift her focus to business. "She wanted to follow my footsteps. She wanted to be an actor. She explored a little bit, but she decided that this is not for her. So now she is back into the business world. She is interning with her father. She plans to do other things," she added.
For the unaware, Madhoo tied the knot with Anand Shah on 19 February 1999.
The couple is blessed with two daughters - Amaya and Keia. It might also be interesting to know that Madhoo's husband is the cousin of businessman Jay Mehta, who is married to Bollywood actress Juhi Chawla.
During the conversation, Madhoo also shared that her role in the movie 'Diljale' ended up becoming the reason for her marriage. She said that when her husband saw her in the movie, he was totally taken by her, and before she knew it, they were married. "That's a role that won me my husband. My husband saw this film in Singapore, I believe, and he felt, "Who is this girl. She is amazing". The next thing I know, I am married to this man", Madhoo revealed.

Lovely news. But I wish her daughter gets to pursue her own dreams too, whether it's work or family. Marriage is great, but hope she doesn't lose her own identity. We've seen too many women give up everything. Still, all the best to the family! 🙏
Time flies! Can't believe Madhoo is becoming a mother-in-law. Feels like yesterday she was dancing to 'Chhupana Bhi Nahin' from 'Diljale'. That movie really was special for her. And interesting that Keia chose business over acting - good for her! 🎉
Nice to see a positive family story from Bollywood. Madhoo seems like a grounded person. The way she talks about her daughters is heartwarming. Also, I didn't know her husband was related to Juhi Chawla's husband - small world! 😄
Wishing Amaya all the happiness in her new journey! 🌸 But honestly, I hope she gets time to figure out her career after the wedding too. Not everything has to be before marriage, right? Madhoo seems like a supportive mom, so I'm sure she'll guide her well.
