Meet woman, who is relative of India's richest actress Juhi Chawla, was once removed from movies due to..., her name is...
Juhi Chawla is one of the most well-known faces in Bollywood. Not just that, she is also the richest actress in Bollywood, as per the report by the Hurun Rich List 2024. Though the actress came from a background where no one was part of the industry, Juhi made a name for herself. Today, she is a prominent actress in Bollywood. However, do you know that Juhi's sister-in-law is also an actress? As beautiful as Juhi, her sister-in-law Madhoo Shah is a well-known Indian actress who has worked across Hindi, Tamil, Telugu, Malayalam, and Kannada cinema. She stepped into Bollywood in 1991 with the action-romance blockbuster Phool Aur Kaante, opposite Ajay Devgn. Just a year later, Madhoo shot to fame with the Tamil romantic thriller Roja, where she starred alongside Arvind Swamy. Over the years, Madhoo became a household name in the industry. However, many people don't know that Madhoo shares a close relationship with Hema Malini — she is her cousin — and her father was a producer. In an interview, Madhoo revealed she had to face several challenges despite coming from a background of artists. While speaking to Bollywood Bubble, Madhoo shared, 'My father was a producer. I am from Hema Malini's family; she is my cousin. My mother was a dancer. My whole background was around dance, music, and films. But whatever I did, I did it myself. First of all, it was a struggle that I had to tell my father that I wanted to become an actor, because he wanted me to become a doctor. Second, I did not have support, and I did not have confidence. I felt that if I told people that I wanted to become an actor, people would laugh. I had to get out of self-doubt. I did not even know how to approach someone for work. All this was a big struggle for me. First of all, I got rejection.' She added, 'My father was a producer, so he had a film Awaargi, which had Anil Kapoor, Govinda, and Meenakshi. I had gone for the song recording of that film. When a producer saw me there, he told my father that he wanted to cast me in a film. But my father got angry about it. But then I told my father to say yes. Then he got me trained. But when the film started, after four days only, he felt that I was not ready, and I was replaced.' When Madhoo came to know about her replacement, her heart broke. However, she did not lose hope and turned out to be one of the most well-known actresses of the '90s.
