Juhi Chawla ruled the Hindi film industry in the 1990s. Before starting her career as an actress she was one of the top models and secured the Miss India title in 1984. She even bagged the Best Costume Award at the Miss Universe pageant in the same year. Juhi Chawla debuted in the film industry alongside Aamir Khan with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak (1988). The film became a blockbuster and made Juhi and Aamir overnight sensations. However once on The Kapil Sharma Show the actress revealed that during the promotions of her debut film she would request the local drivers to put up the posters on their cars. But some would say no and shoo her away since she was a debutant and no one knew her back then. Juhi said on the show I still remember when our movie was going to be released. Nobody knew us. Remember at that time it was a common practice for taxis to carry film posters. There was a long line of taxis below our building so I would go from driver to driver requesting them to put up the posters. She added They would ask ‘Who’s he?’ and I would say he is the hero Aamir Khan. They would then point to my image on the poster and ask ‘Who’s she?’ and I would say ‘This is me.’ And they would say ‘No no’ and shoo us away. But some did reply sweetly allowing us to put up the posters.   View this post on Instagram   A post shared by Juhi Chawla Mehta (@iamjuhichawla) Although her breakthrough came with Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak but before that the actress was approached for another sensational hit that released the same year- BR Chopra’s Mahabharat.
