Juhi finds travelling alone adventurous

Actress Juhi Chawla says travelling alone in a flight is like an adventure trip for her because usually she is accompanied by a lot of people.

"Stepping into a flight alone always makes me feel like I'm on an adventure. Usually, I'm cocooned by production people or family," Juhi tweeted Thursday.

Currently, she is in the news for her bold avatar in her next film "Gulaab Gang". Directed by Soumik Sen, the movie, coming out March 7, will see Juhi sharing screen space with her contemporary Madhuri Dixit for the first time.
