I can even joke with him about our supposed affair."

In the same interview, Madhuri was asked about her alleged competition with Sridevi, she said, "This whole trumped-up rivalry with Sridevi is most unfair. The whole thing was one big Tamasha indulged in by the press right from the word go. Without my having any say in the matter they decided that I was the No1 and Sridevi was out."

She added, "I kept insisting that Sridevi had been around for so many, many more years and had some so many many more films. But my voice was drowned in this chorus. Then Chandni and Chalbaaz came along and the same people decided that Sri was No.1 and I was No.2. I don't understand this need to slot us into numbers."
