After Chalte Chalte, the second and last film from Dreamz, the friends were said to have drifted apart for a while, and the company’s shutters were downed. Though they reunited very soon (both Shah Rukh and Juhi followed Mirza in London), Dreamz is yet to resume. “It’s true Juhi was disappointed but it was not because she was not cast as the heroine of Chalte Chalte,” clarifies Mirza. “We will produce a film together the moment we find a good script. In fact, I am writing a script for Shah Rukh. I will narrate it to him sometime.”
In a career that spans nearly two decades now, Mirza surprisingly had made very few films (this despite his films hitting the box office jackpot)—a far cry from today’s factory-like movie production. “I’m laidback,” he says, promising, however, to come out of his self-imposed hibernation.
