New Delhi, May 20: Vibrant and cheerful film actor Juhi Chawla loves being in superstar Shah Rukh Khan`s company as he gives her great joy. On being asked whether she prefers Shah Rukh as a friend, as a co-actor or as a business partner, Juhi flashed her mn- dollar smile and replied: `I like Shah Rukh everywhere! `He is a sharp person and great fun to be with. He is great in whatever he does and, yes, he is truly a joy.`
Juhi was here last week to launch the `Bhootnath` collection for Biba, a fashion retail outlet. Besides acting, it is her involvement in the Indian Premier League (IPL) matches that sets her pulse racing.
Juhi, who is co-owner of the Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) team along with Shah Rukh, said: `IPL is really exciting but it is also stressful for me.` Dressed in a simple kurti and pants with no accessories, Juhi spoke about her recently released film `Bhootnath`. The initial response to the film has not been good, but Juhi asserted that it was being appreciated the world over.
`I am so happy that the film is being appreciated. I had a great time working with the child (Aman Siddiqui) and Amitji (Amitabh Bachchan) and it is a special film for me,` she said. `Bhootnath` is a story based on the relationship of a child with his deceased grandfather, a kind ghost whom the child gradually befriends. Juhi and Shah Rukh play Aman`s parents in the film.
Since the film was centred on Amitabh and Aman, didn`t she feel overshadowed? `I have been asked about this many times but, frankly, I could neither have played the ghost nor the child! So there is nothing like being overshadowed in the film. `I feel that as long as we play our given parts well, we are noticed and our work is also appreciated,` Juhi said. Talking about her future projects, Juhi said she was playing the role of a fortune-teller in Aziz Mirza`s `Kismet Konnection`. `It`s a small role but a very different one,` she said.
