Though Bollywood celeb friendships and jodis are iconic, their petty fights are equally legendary.
Did you know that Juhi Chawla and Aamir Khan once held a grudge against each other that went on for almost 6-7 years?
Aamir-Juhi had starred in iconic movies like Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak, Ishq, Tum Mere Ho and more. It was on the sets of ISHQ that their feud sparked off.
Recalling the fight, Aamir had told the media – “During the shoot of Ishq, we fought over a small issue. It was a petty one, but I think I was a little egoistic then. So I decided I will not speak to her again. Even on sets, I would keep a distance from her.”
He further added, “Even when she would come and sit beside me, I would walk out. I would go and sit at least 50 feet away from her (laughs). I never greeted her or bid her goodbyes. Only during the scene, if we were required to speak, I would talk to her. But it was only professional.”
What Had Happened On Ishq Sets?
Juhi Chawla had revealed in detail what had happened to the Savvy magazine – “We were shooting for Ishq and Aamir and Ajay [Devgn] would pull pranks on me on the set. They went on till a point where I almost cried. I was upset and in an egotistical moment, declared that I would not shoot the next day.”
“And to my word, I didn’t go to the set the next day. The following day, Aamir, Ajay and Induji came to my house and Aamir apologized.”
Aamir Khan was then hugely pissed at Juhi –
“But once that was resolved, Aamir got very upset with me. He said, ‘You can say anything to me or fight with me, but you cannot not come to the set. The whole day of shooting got stalled because of you. And that’s a big loss to the producer because the whole unit turned up’.”
How Did It Get Resolved?
Aamir Khan shared a bit on how the matter got resolved – “So for the next six-seven years, we did not speak. But when she got to know about my divorce with Reena, she called me up and asked to meet. Juhi had been close to both Reena and me, and she wanted to sort our differences.
Juhi somewhere knew I might not pick up her call, but still she called me. That touched me and I knew the friendship hadn’t been affected a bit between us. We might not have been on talking terms but had continued to care for each other.”
Well, all’s well that ends well. Do you want these two to reunite again as co-stars? Let us know in the comments below.
