Madhu Sapre is not only modeling but also the famous name of the glamor industry. In the 1990s she made her special identity in the modeling world through her beauty, style and courage. Born on 14 July 1971 in Maharashtra, Madhu Sapre wanted to become an athlete since childhood. But his luck brought him into the modeling world and made him stand in a controversy so that his whole life changed.

Struggle for about 14 years
Madhu Sapre’s name came into the limelight when he did a photoshoot for the shoe company Phoenix with his boyfriend and famous model Milind Soman of that time. In this advertisement, a dragon snake was wrapped on the body of both and they were wearing only the shoes of that company.

This advertisement had raised a big controversy at that time, because at that time both society and media misunderstood such photoshoots in India. Many people called it pornography.

The dispute increased so much that the Mumbai Police registered a case of spreading obscenity against him. This case went to court for about fourteen years. During this time both Madhu and Milind faced many difficulties, but finally the court acquitted them.

This decision of the court waged a new debate on the subject of glamor and boldness in India. Madhu Sapre said in an interview on the matter that this photoshoot was a part of his career and there was nothing wrong or vulgar in it.

Leaving the dream of athletes, stepped into the world of modeling
Madhu Sapre wanted to become an athlete since childhood. One day the famous photographer Gautam Rajya President suggested him to come into modeling after seeing his beauty and style. Gautam also did some photoshoots of Madhu. At that time, Madhu was just 19 years old. Seeing herself in Fotose, Madhu gave up his dream of becoming athletes and stepped into the modeling world.

With his hard work and different style, everyone’s attention was attracted. In 1992, she made an identity across the country by winning the title of Miss India. Madhu participated in the ‘Miss Universe Competition’ in the same year and represented India and finished second.

This was a big place for his career. After this, she started getting offers of many advertisements and soon became the shining star of the modeling world. But the advertisement by Tuff Shoes implicated him in controversies. Even after this, she continued to move forward in her career and played her name in the country and abroad.

Where is this star of the modeling world today?
Madhu Sapre earned a lot of name in the glamor industry. He made her Bollywood debut in 2003 through the film Boom but was his first and last film. In 2001, she married Italy’s businessman Zian Maria and is now living with her family in Italy. A daughter, whose name is Indira, is spending quality time.
