In the glitzy and glamorous world of Bollywood, we often hear about off-screen romance as much as we witness the on-screen couples. Among the many such famous romantic link-ups in Bollywood, one lesser-remembered yet once-talked-about link-up was between Bollywood’s ‘Dhak Dhak girl’ Madhuri Dixit and former Indian cricketer Ajay Jadeja. While both were at the peak of their career, reports of romance between the duo started making rounds.

The ‘Dhak Dhak’ actress ventured into Bollywood with her debut film in 1984 with Abodh. Her expressive eyes, radiant smile, and graceful moves won the hearts of everyone. But her breakthrough moment came with the film 1988’s with Tezaab, after which she never looked back. She delivered a streak of hits after that and became the most bankable and admired actress in the industry. With her undeniable beauty, she made several celebrities fall for her, including big names like Sanjay Dutt and Anil Kapoor. But one name that surprised many was that of cricketer Ajay Jadeja.

As per reports, Madhuri and Ajay first met during a commercial photoshoot in the 1990s. Their chemistry reportedly sparked instant headlines, and whispers of a budding relationship spread fast. Ajay, who was already a pioneer in cricket, and Madhuri, who was dominating Bollywood—the duo’s affair became a hot topic of discussion.

Ajay Jadeja was a key player in Indian cricket, having played 15 Test matches and 196 ODIs for India. He scored over 5,000 runs in ODIs and had a reputation as a dependable middle-order batsman. What’s surprising is that he even outshone Sachin Tendulkar and Virat Kohli in terms of net worth, reportedly standing at Rs 1,450 crore, more than Sachin’s ₹1,250 crore and Virat’s Rs 1,050 crore.

But later, in a turn of events, this love story came to an end. In 1999, Ajay Jadeja’s name became embroiled in a major match-fixing controversy. This scandal not only stunned Jadeja’s fans but also shook Indian cricket. This scandal further jeopardized Jadeja’s personal life, and with it, his budding connection with Madhuri reportedly came to an end.
