Juhi Chawla`s Film Caree
Juhi started her career with Sultanat in 1986 after which followed two Kannada films. She again came back to Hindi movies in 1988 where she acted in a directorial debut with Mansoor Khan and newcomer Aamir Khan. The film was Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak which was a huge hit at the box office. Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla were acclaimed 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. After these performances she was brought to a high stature where she was compared with most successful Bollywood actresses.

Juhi`s second innings in Bollywood had begun with a series of hits like Bol Radha Bol, Hum Hain Rahi Pyaar Ke, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman. All these big films shot her into the big league instantly. Her next hit was Yash Chopra`s Darr in 1993. The movie`s success pitched her as contender to Madhuri Dixit`s No.1 title. Movies like Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman and Darr also saw Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla emerge as a new romantic lead. Together they shone in unforgettable love creams like Yes Boss and Duplicate. The onscreen pairing spilled off screen too and they became best of friends. The duo, along with Aziz Mirza, formed a production company, Dreamz Unlimited. Juhi Chawla also acted in critically acclaimed movie `Aaina` with Jackie Shroff in 1993. She has appeared in critically acclaimed films like 3 Deewarein, 7A1/2 Phere and My Brother Nikhil.
