Juhi Chawla ruled the hearts of millions of Indians in the 90’s as the quintessential bubbly girl-next-door. The actress reveals that, that is the kind of character she was most comfortable playing since it came naturally to her.
“I was so happy doing such roles because when I tried to be a seductress or something else, I found it difficult and it would unnerve me. What came easily to me, and what I enjoyed tremendously was being cheeky, funny and putting a smile viewers’ faces,” Juhi says, adding, “I loved that I was the kind of girl you could take home to meet your mom, and I’ m so glad that that’s the image that has remained in the minds of people.”
These days, Juhi is in a happy place, and she’s being extremely picky, choosing only those projects that
genuinely excite her. “I’m in bliss right now, because I’m doing the work I like, and getting time to spend with my family. If I don’t want to do something, I just politely decline. It’s taken me nearly half my life to get to this stage, and I’m very happy right now,” she says.
