Aamir Khan recently revisited a personal and professional chapter from his past that many fans may not know much about—the long-standing silence between him and actor Juhi Chawla that lasted for seven years. Speaking on Raj Shamani’s podcast, Aamir shared that he had once stopped talking to Juhi over a minor disagreement, even though the two continued working together.
Aamir Khan recalls his seven-years-long silent feud with Juhi Chawla: “She tried a lot but I wouldn’t budge”
Calling it one of his “biggest flaws and red flags,” Aamir admitted that he tends to emotionally shut down after a conflict. “Juhi aur mera jhagda hua, 7 saal chala (Juhi and I had a fight, it went on for seven years),” he said. “Main tas se mas nahin hota tha (I wouldn’t budge).”
Reflecting on the situation, the actor revealed how his then-wife Reena Dutta urged him to end the cold war. “Reena mujhe bolti thi, ‘Kaise kar rahe ho tum? Milo usse, khatam karo’ (Reena used to say, ‘How are you behaving? Meet her, end the fight’).”
Aamir recalled being upset over something trivial but emotionally shutting Juhi out despite her repeated efforts to make peace. “Juhi tried a lot,” he acknowledged, adding that his stubbornness stopped him from reconciling sooner.
This isn’t the first time Aamir has spoken about the rift. During a 2018 media interaction promoting the documentary Rubaru Roshni, he recalled that the conflict dated back to the filming of Ishq (1997). The two eventually resolved their issues after Aamir’s divorce from Reena in 2002.
“Juhi called me after the divorce and asked to meet. She knew I might not pick up her call, but still she tried. That touched me,” he said. “Even though we hadn’t spoken in years, the care hadn’t gone anywhere.”
Speaking of the professional front, Aamir is currently busy promoting his upcoming film, Sitaare Zameen Par. It is scheduled to release on June 20.
