"It (friendship) is not strained or anything. With ourgrowing lives and schedules, we get busy. Like today, Madhuri Dixitand I are working for a film because our work has brought ustogether. Then she will be busy with Jhalak Dikhla Jaa and Iwill be busy with my work. How and when we will meet next wedon't know," Juhi told PTI.

"If I need something and I call Shah Rukh, I know Iwill get through him in an instant but I will not trouble him,because I know he is very busy. So I really need not take histime," she said.

Juhi wonders why their friendship is questioned often."I feel why it should be? I think it should be left to theindividuals to decide whether they get along or not, whetherthere is a connect more than work or not, then you can befriends," she said.

The actress does not feel upset about the reportedgrowing animosity between her and Shah Rukh."I feel why it should be said (reported this way).There are friendships and there should be friendships amongall," she said.

Apparently, the friction between Juhi and Shah Rukhstarted when her brother Bobby was replaced with Venky Mysoreas the CEO of Red Chillies, without informing the actress.

When asked who are her friends from the film industry,Juhi said, "Whosoever I have worked with, whenever I meetthem I will be nice to them, be it Aamir Khan or Shah RukhKhan or Amrita Singh and others. But it is not that I talk tothem every day and ask what you are doing and all. Thatdoesn't happen."

Shah Rukh and Juhi were seen as one of the best onscreen pairs. According to Juhi, the secret behind theirchemistry was the sparkling films that they were offered.She teamed up with the superstar in several movies,including Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman, Darr, Duplicate, YesBoss and others. Most of their films have been hit.

On work front, Juhi will be seen next in GulaabGang, which is loosely based on Uttar-Pradesh based SampatPal's Gulabi Gang.

Director Soumik Sen has managed to bring two powerfulactresses - Madhuri Dixit and Juhi Chawla - on screen forthe first time.
