Juhi Chawla may have faded from public view after a string of huge hits in the 1990s, but is looking forward to two new releases that pit her opposite stars like Amitabh Bachchan , Shah Rukh Khan and Irrfan Khan . From her first big hit Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak in 1988 to Nikhil Advani 's 2007 release Salaam-e-Ishq , Juhi has had a long journey and no unfulfilled wishes.She is currently excited about her forthcoming releases - producer Ravi Chopra 's Bhootnath , directed by Vivek Sharma and starring Bachchan and SRK and Krazy 4 , a Rakesh Roshan production directed by Raja Sen that also stars Irrfan and Arshad Warsi . "Both are first-time directors. But I know them well as they have worked as assistants for a long time. The films are different and it was great working with them," said the actress who was in New Delhi recently for opening an art exhibition.Asked what she looked for when selecting films, she said: "I do not want to give clichéd answers, like I want a role like that of Nargis in 'Mother India'. A good script and a good director always make me enthusiastic."Now at 40 and at a stage of her career where she is doing only selected movies, her expectations from life is simple."Ten or 20 years down the line, I want to see myself still associated with some art form -- be it acting or singing or any other -- which gives me peace and satisfaction," Juhi said.
