Juhi Chawla and her husband Jay Mehta are co-owners of the IPL team Kolkata Knight Riders, along with Shah Rukh Khan. The Bollywood actress has starred in several films with SRK, and their decades-long friendship is one for the books. In a recent interview, Juhi Chawla shared an interesting reason why she can’t watch a cricket match with Shah Rukh Khan. Here’s what Juhi Chawla had to say…
In conversation with IANS, Juhi Chawla revealed the real reason why she can’t watch IPL matches with Shah Rukh Khan. “IPL is always exciting. We all are in front of our television sets. When our team plays, it is interesting to watch them and we all are highly tense,” Juhi Chawla shared. “It is not good to watch a match with him because when our team is not performing well, he vents out his anger at me. I tell him to tell that to the team and not me. So we are not the best people to watch the match with. I think the same goes for a lot of owners. They all can be seen sweating while their teams play,” Juhi Chawla added.
Juhi Chawla, Jay Mehta, and Shah Rukh Khan, who are the co-owners of the prestigious Kolkata Knight Riders franchise, are often spotted when the team plays and are seen cheering them on. Juhi Chawla has a pretty solid reason for not watching IPL matches along with SRK, but we can’t blame him, as stress comes quite naturally when you watch your team play, and sometimes they can be phenomenal on the field, and a few times they may be losing, so we completely get it!
