Amrita Rao has created quite a fan base for herself over the years with her simplicity, grace and performances in films.
She also bowled over renowned painter MF Hussain who once said that hers was the only face that excited him after Madhuri Dixit.
We got our hands on a throwback interview where Amrita reacted to being MF Hussain’s muse.
Amrita had told Zoom that it is one of the best compliments that she has received.
She also added that it is going to be a historic compliment when she will look back at her profile and her career.
