"It's a funny story. I was in Senior KG, my mother and father wanted to keep my name as Pragati and I don't why... but I wasn't happy with that name. So, I went to school and told my teacher that my name was Kajol. Then my teacher called my father and said that I was referring to myself as Kajol. It was then that my father filled a new form and changed my name to Kajol," she says.
Ask her how she feels about having the same name as the Bollywood actor Kajol, and she says, "Oh! That has never mattered to me. I am happy with it and I don't have any issues. My only problem is that sometimes people don't understand how to pronounce my name, and call me Kajal."
The actor says that she has very well understood the significance of her name. My name is really important for me because that's my identity, people know you by your name. The meaning of my name is someone who helps purify. It means people who are with us, who are friends with us, we try to make them into better human beings and better people," she says.
She adds, "My name has been really lucky for me that's why I haven't changed it even after coming in the industry, which normally people do. I am happy with my name and it's lucky for me."
