Talking about old times, Shanthi Priya in an interview with Bollywood Thikana hesitated when asked about Juhi Chawla. “She has her own mood swings,” the actor said. “But during Mere Sajna Saath Nibhana, it was cold. I don’t know if she used to look upon me like, ‘Oh, she’s South Indian, a new girl’, I don’t know, but that was the energy I used to get (from her). We didn’t interact much, and we didn’t have too many scenes together. Now also, if she sees me, I should remind her, I don’t think she’ll remember (who I am),” she further added.

“Female-female they don’t even look at each other. Like now, it’s really nice to see them together, go on holidays and dinners, we never used to do that.

While Shanthi Priya said she never had a problem with any of the female actors, she asserted that she also felt cold vibes from Ayesha Jhulka.
