I think this statement can be applicable to anyone.
Whats the fuss about Deepika? Or Katrina? Or Kajol, Rani, Aishwarya, Kareena?...
I personally don't like Madhuri, infact I love Sridevi so much more, but Madhuri certainly was a huge star in the 80-90's, and she is still heavily adored and popular. Her films may not be doing well, but people DO Like her and want to see her. I have to admit that.
A lot of people don't like Madhuri, such as myself and that's fine, but there is a fairly substancial figure of people who do like her and look upto and think shes one of the best actresses EVER.
I do believe that her time has come up though. I believe the fuel to retain stardom is constant image rebuilding, artistic exploration and always reinveting yourself. That's something Madhuri has failed to do, she's still stuck to that 'Im pretty and let me do my thumka with my 12 facial expressions. She has failed to give something new to the audience...and I find it appalling that shes always playing a prostitute but wheatehr we like or not, until today...she still comes up in Top 10 actresses...along with Kajol and Aishwarya. They haven't had any work in years but they're still very popular and loved by audiences.
