    After Madhuri, Juhi Chawla roped in for Gulab Gang


    After actress Madhuri Dixit, it’s her contemporary Juhi Chawla who has been roped in for filmmaker Anubhav Sinha’sGulab Gang. Sinha, who is producing the film, says he has cast Juhi alongside Madhuri because this will be the first time the two actors will be seen together on the big screen.

    "Actually, there were two reasons to cast Juhi Chawla for the film. The very first thing is that it was a creative decision taken by all of us... and we thought it would be great to see two iconic stars - Madhuri and Juhi - together in the film," Sinha told IANS. "I couldn't have pulled off a better cast than the two most iconic female stars, Madhuri and Juhi, together for the first time on Indian screen," he added.

    The film, inspired by UP’s Sampat Pal-led Gulabi Gang, will go on floors in December and the "first schedule will be shot in Bombay", Sinha told IANS. "We were working on the looks of the actresses, now we are ready to roll. Since the film is based in rural India, both of them will be seen in a de-glam avatar and will have a rustic look," he added. The movie, which will be directed by Soumik Sen, also features Mahie Gill and Shilpa Shukla.
