Mumbai, June 19 (IANS) Actress Juhi Chawla says the food chain Pizza Metro Pizza is the baby of her husband Jay Mehta, who keeps her away from the business. But she makes the most of it by gorging on pizzas!

“Just recently, we opened a new centre of our restaurant… that’s how my name got associated with the business. But actually, Pizza Metro Pizza is Jay’s baby, not mine. I just enjoy myself and have pizzas over there,” Juhi said here at an event.

“My husband keeps me away from business matters,” added the actress, who will be seen in “Chalk N Duster”.

Pizza Metro Pizza is Mehta’s venture along with his business associates. They have one restaurant in the celebrity hub of Bandra while another centre is in South Mumbai.

Kareena ‘lucky charm’ for Salman’s family?

Kareena Kapoor Khan has starred in the debut ventures of Salman Khan’s family members. It is because of this that she doesn’t deny being a ‘lucky charm’ for them!

At a promotional event for “Bajrangi Bhaijaan”, in which Kareena stars with Salman, she said: “When he offered me this role in his debut (Bollywood) production (under the banner Salman Khan Films), I thought it was great. And my producer is looking into the fact that I look beautiful in the film.

“It’s strange when Alvira (Salman’s sister) turned producer with Atul (Agnihotri) in ‘Bodyguard’, I was in the film. And when Arbaaz (Salman’s brother) turned director with ‘Dabangg 2’, I was in the song ‘Fevicol’. And now in Salman’s first production, again I’ll be there. So we have a great track record. I wouldn’t deny that I’m a lucky charm for them.”

Salman’s past productions have included “Chillar Party”, which he produced under SKBH Productions, and “Dr. Cabbie”, an Indo-Canadian project.
