Juhi Chawla opens up on not getting quality work now!

Juhi Chawla was one of the most popular actresses of Bollywood in the 90s. However, the actress herself believes that the projects which she gets these days are not satisfying enough. She is now finding it difficult to get meaty roles. In a recent interview with Hindustan Times, the actress shared that she has worked in small and big films both, but wants good quality work in the future. She said that some filmmakers come to her with their projects but they don't have a proper script.

She said, "Films still come to me, though few and far between, but not necessarily satisfying. There's a sifting process. There are some which aren't worth considering at all. Not to put anyone down, but some who come really don't have a proper project or a complete story. I've worked in smaller films and in big projects, too."

Recalling her experience about the 2016 film Chalk N Duster she said that she was lucky to get ELKDTAL... But Chalk N Duster was a new producer, a relatively seasoned director but not a known name and they managed to make a good film. She said, "I loved the script so much, I went with them to Shabanaji (Shabana Azmi) saying 'can we do this together'. I've done that too. But I'm not very good at this. Well, I feel very awkward picking up the phone and saying I want to work."

"Though I wouldn't say I'm eager on quantity, I'd love some amazing quality work to come and then have it win," she added.

On the professional front, Juhi was last seen in Ek Ladki Ko Dekha Toh Aisa Laga. The film also starred Rajkummar Rao, Anil Kapoor and Sonam Kapoor. The actress will be next seen in an untitled project which will also star her 90s co-star Rishi Kapoor.
