When Juhi Chawla spoke about strained relationship with Shah Rukh Khan after their production house wrapped up: ‘My nature of work changed..’ | Hindi Movie News
Juhi Chawla and Shah Rukh Khanmake one of the best onscreen pairs who worked together in movies like ‘Darr’, ‘Yes Boss’ among others. They took their friendship to professional level where they were also co-partners as they launched their production house.Meanwhile, they continue to still co-own ‘Kolkata Knight Riders’ at the IPL (Indian Premiere League).In an old interview, Juhi had spoken about the testing times during the initial years of buying KKR and also when the films produced by their production house weren’t doing well. Juhi opened up on how it also affected her relationship with Shah Rukh as they had to wrap up their production house. She said in an old interview with Rajeev Masand, “Those were trying times when during first initial years, KKR would come at the bottom of the list and my kids would cry saying, ‘What is this team you have?’ And they would go to the Dhirubhai Ambani International School and it wasn’t easy for them.“She revealed why they had to fold up their production house and said, “We made Ashoka that won a lot of critical acclaim but didn’t do well at box office. Then they started Chalte Chalte. I was helping behind-the-scene but then I was expecting at that time and I had to go away and I was in London for a lot of the time. They made the film. After that…I don’t know why. Then Aziz Mirza lost his wife and was heart broken and then, I don’t know why, but we didn’t make more films in Dreamz because we needed Aziz ji to come up with more scripts.”It also impacted her equation with SRK as she reasoned, “At that time my work changed and my family was growing, I was moving in another direction. Earlier, we were on set together and then you work behind-the-scene but later you are further away from each other. Also, my nature of work changed, I was suddenly started doing films like 3 Deewarein, My Brother…Nikhil, Jhankaar Beats and others.”
