Juhi Chawla and Shah Rukh Khan are two of the closest friends in the industry. The two have stood by each other through thick and thin. They have worked in several films together, and while Shah Rukh Khan is celebrating his 60th birthday today, Juhi Chawla has recently opened up about SRK’s unique and remarkable ability. While speaking with HT, Juhi shared, “When I first signed Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Vivek Vaswani (the film’s co-producer) told me my hero looks like Aamir Khan. So I was in for a shock when I saw Shah Rukh with hair up to his eyebrows and not the chocolate boy I had imagined. Once I started working with him, I realised he was not like a newcomer at all; he worked relentlessly, doing three shifts a day. During the shoot of Yes Boss, I remember, if a scene was not written up to the mark, Azizji (Aziz Mirza, director) would say, ‘Let Shah Rukh come, he will make it all work out well.’ Scenes that were a mix of romance and fun worked best for us, and we went on to do many films together.” “He has a way with words and can convince you to do anything. I remember being unsure about Duplicate because I had nothing much to do in it. We were shooting another film, and I remember SRK making me sit on the steps and convincing me for two hours that I should sign the film. He can convince you to do anything, so one has to be careful,” Juhi further continued while sharing how Shah Rukh Khan has a knack for convincing people of anything. About Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla Along with her husband and Shah Rukh Khan, she co-owns the Indian Premier League cricket team Kolkata Knight Riders, showing her interest extends beyond cinema into business and sports management. Juhi shares a close friendship and professional bond with Shah Rukh Khan, which extends beyond films. She even stood as a guarantor and signed a Rs 1 lakh bond in Mumbai’s sessions court for his son, Aryan Khan, in a drug case, in which he has now been acquitted.
