Officer's Friend Cries Over Madhuri Dixit's Marriage
10 Aug
Summary
- A friend's emotional reaction to Madhuri Dixit's marriage surprised an IAS officer.
- The incident occurred during intense UPSC exam preparation years ago.
- The officer shared this anecdote at an open interview event.
During a recent public interview, IAS officer Tukaram Mundhe recounted a peculiar incident from his UPSC Civil Services examination preparation period. Around 1998-99, while intensely studying with his friend Pankaj, Mundhe was startled when Pankaj suddenly began crying. Mundhe, fearing a personal crisis for his friend, was taken aback when Pankaj revealed the cause of his distress: the marriage of Bollywood actress Madhuri Dixit to Dr. Shriram Nene. This unexpected reaction to celebrity news provided a moment of levity amidst their rigorous studies.
Mundhe, who is currently the Maharashtra Food and Drug Administration Commissioner, shared this memory at an event in Pune. The anecdote highlighted the lighter side of the demanding UPSC preparation journey. When asked about his own admiration for actors from that era, Mundhe humorously declined to answer, citing his current marital status, which was met with laughter from the audience.
