Roja Actress Madhoo says being related to Hema Malini didn’t give her Movies, a hit or Appreciation

Actress Madhoo who will next be starring in Vijay Raaz and Shreyas Talpade starrer Kartam Bhugtam clarified on her relationship with Hema Malini and Juhi Chawla and also shared that being connected to stars can only assure you access and respect but can’t get you film offers or a hit nor an appreciation.

Madhoo said, “I am Hema ji’s cousin and Juhi ji my sister-in-law married to my husband’s cousin. We are a family of actors. But, Juhi ji came into my life much later as a family member, only after I got married. And when I got married, I had kind of left the industry. So her being in the family, emotionally, or mentally, or physically, did not affect me.”

She continued, “But me coming from Hema ji’s family had an impact and only good impact. The thing is, coming from the home of an artist of Hema ji’s stature gave me a lot of dignity.”

The actor added, “So I carried that kind of dignity, some kind of respect. It did not give me a movie, it did not give me a hit, it did not give me appreciation even, but it gave me access and respect. If I went to somebody’s office, I was treated with respect. So that much respect I got because I came from Hema ji’s home.”

Madhoo has actively been a part of the south cinema. Her next is Kartam Bhugtam which is directed by Soham Shah.
