From Karisma Kapoor in 'Mentalhood' to Sushmita Sen in 'Aarya', the last few months have seen several Bollywood actors from the 90s return to the limelight.
Actors like Raveena Tandon, Shilpa Shetty, Bhagyashree and others are also set to revive their Bollywood careers in 2021.
Here's a list of yesteryear actors who are trying their luck in showbiz again:
Madhuri Dixit
One of the most successful actors of the 90s, Madhuri took a break from her acting career after getting married to Shriram Nene and welcoming her sons.
After starring in Shah Rukh khan-starrer 'Devdas' in 2002, Madhuri took a hiatus of five years. She then made her comeback with the film 'Aaja Nachle', which tanked at the box office.
The actress, who was seen as a judge in several dance reality shows, was then seen in films like 'Dedh Ishqiya', 'Total Dhamaal' and 'Gulaab Gang' with Juhi Chawla. Her last film was Karan Johar's period drama 'Kalank'.
Up next, she is set to make her digital debut in the series 'Finding Anamika', which shows her as a superstar who goes missing. The show has been directed by Karishma Kohli and Bejoy Nambiar.
Shilpa Shetty
Shilpa Shetty is returning to showbiz after being away from the big screen for more than a decade.
She will star in Sabir Khan's 'Nikamma', which marks her comeback after 'Apne'.
Shilpa will also be seen in 'Hungama 2', the sequel to the 2003 blockbuster comedy-drama 'Hungama'.
This will mark her onscreen comeback after 13 years.
Directed by Priyadarshan, the film will star Paresh Rawal, Meezaan Jafri and Pranitha Subhash in the lead roles.

Bhagyashree
'Maine Pyar Kiya' actress Bhagyashree is all set to make her comeback with Kangana Ranaut's 'Thalaivi'. She will be seen playing the role of the late politician's mother Vedvalli.
