Fans form a big part of the life of a movie star. But sometimes fans blur the line between real and reel, resulting in weird fan encounters between them and the stars. In a recent interview with Bollywood Hungama, Madhuri Dixit recalled a weird fan encounter from the 90s when a man came to her house saying that the actor would adopt him.

"There was one fan who turned up at my door with his luggage. He must have been in his 50s and this was in the 90s. When the door was opened, he said that Madhuri ji called me. When asked why he was called, he said that Madhuri is going to adopt him today. When asked when this was conveyed to him and he said, 'I was at home,she was on the TV, we were talking to each other and she said to come and I came’," Madhuri recalled.

“They think it is all real when they are watching something. When they watch you, it somehow becomes a reality for them,” she added.
