Yesteryear superstar Jaya Prada will join the Indian Idol 12 team over the weekend as a special guest. The actor shot for the special episode which would have the contestants perform on her songs. While the musical acts left her impressed, Jaya Prada also went on to also share some personal details about her relationship with frequent collaborator, actor Sridevi. During the shoot of Indian Idol 12, Jaya revealed that even when she and Sridevi gave huge box office hits together in the 80s, they never shared an emotional connection. She confessed that although they never had a personal grudge, their chemistry never matched. Jaya Prada said, “We never had eye contact with each other even after playing perfect sisters on screen. We both competed with each other, be it regarding dresses or dance. Every single time we met, the directors or the actors used to introduce us on set – we would simply greet each other and move ahead. I still remember during the shoot of the Maqsad, Jeetu ji Rajesh Khanna ji locked both of us in one makeup room for an hour as they both felt that we would start a conversation with each other but we did not even say a word.”
