In late 80s and early 90s, Madhuri and Juhi were considered to be thick competitors. But now, they are working together on Anubhav Sinha&#39;s home production &#39;Gulaab Gang&#39;.u00a0 <img alt="" src="http://www.mid-day.com/photos/plog-content/images/b-town-specials/2013-films-to-look-forward-to/gulab-gang.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 500px;" /> Madhuri Dixit and Juhi Chawla &quot;We were rivals earlier.u00a0There was rivalry which remained for some years. We used to meet only on occasions like some film sets or functions. We would not talk beyond a &#39;hello&#39;, just used to exchange pleasantries. After so many years, we got a chance to work in one film,&quot; Juhi told reporters here last night at the wrap-up party of the film. &quot;We both felt the script was good and accepted our respective roles of a hero and a villain, so it became easy for us to do the film. If we had insecurity and rivalry even now then the film would not have worked out,&quot; she said. It was debutant director Soumik Sen who made Madhuri and Juhi meet and that was an ice-breaker before the two actresses went on the sets. Juhi reveals that she had fun working on the film and considers Madhuri as one of her best co-stars. In the film, Juhi would be playing a negative role. &quot;It was exciting and at the same time challenging to play such a character. At this point in my career I want to do roles that excite me. The language is a bit rough in the film,&quot; she said. The film is based on a group called &#39;Gulabi Gang&#39; and also stars Mahie Gill and Shilpa Shukla. &#39;Gulabi Gang&#39; is a women&#39;s group from Uttar Pradesh&#39;s Bundelkhand region that works for the well-being of women in the region facing violence, domestic and social problems. The group&#39;s leader Sampat Pal was one of the contestants in reality show &#39;Bigg Boss&#39;. &quot;In the film, protagonist and antagonist both are women. It is women-centric but a very interesting film. It is not a preachy movie,&quot; Juhi added. u00a0
