About Juhi and Jay

Juhi got married to businessman Jay Mehta in a secret ceremony in 1996. She was one of the top stars of the Hindi film industry at the time. Sharing why she wanted to keep her marriage a secret, Juhi had told Rajeev Masand in a 2020 interview, “At that time, you did not have the internet and you did not have cameras on every phone, so you could do it that way. I was just about established and doing well. That’s the time Jay was serenading me and I was afraid of losing my career just when I had kind of got there. I wanted to carry on and this seemed the midway.” The couple has two children-- Jahnavi Mehta and Arjun Mehta. In recent times, she has featured in projects such as The Railway Men, Sharmaji Namkeen and Hush Hush.
