While it may not surpass in every aspect, it manages to succeed in starting a conversation and delivering a social message that remains relevant today.' About Son of Sardaar 2

During an event hosted by the Gujarat Chamber of Commerce & Industry, Juhi revealed that her mother had died a year before her wedding, and it seemed like a challenging task to marry without the love and warmth of her mother. Hence, she couldn't be happy even on her big day. Juhi recalled that Jay's mother persuaded the family to forgo a grand wedding, leading to a drastic reduction in the guest list. Juhi said, 'I was shooting for some of the really big films of my career, and I was supposed to get married. My mother had just passed a year ago. When the marriage date was coming close, I was thinking my mother is gone, whom I loved the most, and now my career will also go away. I didn't know how to be happy about it.

She convinced the family to not have the big wedding, and I got married, but it was at home with just the family and closest friends. So with just 80-90-100 people, the wedding was done.' Juhi tied the knot with industrialist Jay Mehta in 1995, and the couple is blessed with two children — daughter Jhanvi Mehta and son Arjun Mehta.
