Born on 13th November 1967, Ludhiana, Punjab, Juhi Chawla bagged the femina Miss india title(1984), married to Jay Mehta, a millionaire industrialist in India and have one daughter.Mansoor Khan directorial debut Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak went onto create box-office history and a star was born. Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla were accepted as the hottest romantic pair at the box-office. Together they went on to do films like Tum Mere Ho and Love Love Love. But unfortunately these films couldn't live up to the audience’s expectations. After doing eminently forgettable films like CID, Shaandaar, Sanam Bewaffa, Goonj, Radha Ka Sangam, Juhi Chawla hit the hotspot with Dharmesh Darshan's Lootere.
Her second innings in Bollywood had begun. A series of hits like Bol Radha Bol, Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman shot her into the big league instantly. Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke got her the popular Filmfare trophy for the Best actress. And her next invitation was to star in Yash Chopra's Darr. Since most stars regard the summons from Yash Chopra as a badge of honours, as valid as an award, Juhi Chawla had finally arrived. The movie's success pitched her as contender to Madhuri Dixit's No.1 title. Suddenly she was being spoken in the same league as Sridevi and Madhuri Dixit.
Movies like Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman and Darr also saw Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla emerge as a new romantic lead. Together they did movies like Yes Boss and Duplicate. She was offered the role of Karishma Kapoor in Dil To Pagal Hai (1997).
The onscreen pairing spilled off screen too. The duo, along with Aziz Mirza, formed a production company, Dreamz Unlimited, to make their kind of films. Though their first production Phir Bhi Dil Hai Hindustani wasn't a rage at the ticket window, it was a much talked about films.
Juhi has recently appeared in Teen Deewarein and My Brother Nikhil and will now be seen opposite Shahrukh Khan in Farah Khan's Happy New Year which is slated for an early 2007 release and opposite Anil Kapoor in Nikhil Advani's Salaam E Ishq: A Tribute To Love which is slated for a November 24, 2006 release. She is also signed for Ravi Chopra's Bhoothnath with Amitabh Bachchan and another film called Swami to be directed by Ganesh Acharya.
Today Juhi Chawla is busy planning for her future productions. In the twilight zone of her acting career, she's now interested in doing only those films that offer her that extra special.
