Dancing queen Madhuri Dixit feels Bollywood, has become a melting pot of all forms of the art.

“I think Bollywood is an amalgam of all dance styles. Bollywood has no style of its own. The style is a cliché. There are so many dance styles all over the world and we get to see them all in one song itself. So this is Bollywood’s specialty,” Madhuri told reporters.

“As soon as new styles come in, like hip-hop is becoming popular now, you see dancers amalgamating it into our own dancing. The dance forms get a Bollywood twist and it becomes a new style. So Bollywood is always incorporating not just Indian and folk, but western dances too,” she added.

The diva took a break from showbiz when she married US-based surgeon Sriram Nene and shifted to Denver from Mumbai to start a family. Now she is back in tinsel town for good, and judge’s celebrity participants on dance reality show “Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 5″.

She looks as fit as ever, and her skin glows even more. What’s the secret?

“It’s just the discipline. You have to be disciplined. I dance regularly and exercise. One has to be fit. One thing good is that I have no bad habits! So for me it’s a healthy lifestyle all the way,” she said.

On the small screen, she was last seen on the judge’s seat in “Jhalak Dikhhla Jaa 4″, and she admits “TV is an immediate way to get in touch with your fans.”

“Thousands of households have a TV and it is great that I can be in so many houses at a time. It’s so wonderful,” she added.

The 45-year-old is also ready for her new innings in Bollywood with two films – Anubhav Sinha’s “Gulab Gang” and Vishal Bhardwaj’s “Dedh Ishqiya”, and she is upbeat about both projects.
