But there is much more to Kajol than just ads, glamour and a pretty face. She remains one of Bollywood’s most successful actresses and one of the most celebrated faces of Indian cinema. The actress is known for her brilliant onscreen presence and also for her cutting off screen remarks. A renowned bookworm, she is one of the few heroines who have managed to keep her feet out of the muddy gossip pool.
If you’re sitting in front of Kajol (or by her side, for that matter), you have to be ready for any kind of reaction. She can snap at you if she doesn’t find something right or she can flash her brilliant smile and make your day. This powerhouse of talent, who has proved her mettle again and again, ever since she made her debut in the forgettable Bekhudi, has made the audience wait with bated breath for any project she takes up, especially now that she is married and has a child.
The actress made an outstanding comeback with Fanaa and this time, it is her husband Ajay Devgan’s directorial debut that is on the mind of every Kajol fan. The lady is enterprising to say the least here’s Tête à Tête with gorgeous beauty. Enjoy…
“I don’t think anyone can predict what people will think once they see the promos. I can just hope that our work is appreciated and hope for the best,” says Kajol, about the promos of U, Me Aur Hum.
The actress has already known Ajay as a co-star and a husband, but now she’s seen him as a director as well. So how’s he in all these capacities? “He’s superb as a co-star because he’s superbly punctual,” she says. Her eyes twinkle as she says, “As a husband, I’m a lucky girl and I know it,” and adds quickly with a laugh, “And he’s very lucky too!” But it is as a director that Kajol feels her husband has found his niche.
“I think he was born to it. He’s always wanted to be a director, even before becoming an actor. He’s one of the best directors I have ever worked with.” But ask her if people might say that she got the role because it is her husband’s film and she pooh-poohs the suggestion. “It would never occur to him to compromise on the film by taking me in something that would not suit me.”
Enough has already been written about how Ajay and Shah Rukh Khan are not on good terms and that Ajay has even stopped her from working with him. Kajol seems fed up of replying to this rumour and retorts, “There’s nothing like that. Ajay and me are an anti-social couple. There’s so much going on at home that we don’t find the time to go out and meet anybody. As for Ajay and Shah Rukh, there is zilch interaction between them, so how can there be any enmity or friendship? Just because they’re not on back slapping terms or call each other every day does not mean they are enemies. And as far as work is concerned, Ajay has never ever influenced me. We don’t operate like that.”
