In the 90s, Madhuri Dixit was called the lookalike of Madhubala as they had an uncanny resemblance. Now, it will be interesting to see which actress will be roped in for the biopic. As it has been announced on Alia's birthday, many people are thinking that it will be the Darlings actress who will be seen in the biopic, and she has also worked with Jasmeet earlier.
