The actress revealed that she had refused films like 'Raja Hindustani', 'Dil Toh Pagal Hai', 'Judaai' among others. "It is all in the past, so it is ok to talk about it and you learnt from it. I think most of them were two heroine projects, so I did not do it. I am responsible for Karisma Kapoor's stardom and she doesn't know about it," she said.

When asked if she regrets not doing those films, Juhi says, "At that time I was still working and I had project after project. Now when I look back, I can see that I was doing silly thing, but that was the phase I was in and you end up doing all these things (rejecting films)."
