Kajol's filmography is nothing great today but at it's time it was pretty good...iconic roles, negative roles, some awards, and very early "retirement." I guess it hasn't stood the test of time.



Yup Dushman, Gupt were iconic at that time. Especially her character in Gupt - negative role was huge for a heroine in the 90s! It was her Baazigar! I agree with your assessment.

But yes later on in career she could have done more such films but she retired so early that she came back to do a film only if it was with some Khan so she could get her blockbuster and be done with it.

Also to blame the actress for their failed comebacks is wrong...it is not that people don't have interest to see Madhuri or Kajol but if movie content sucks it won't work. EV worked because it had good content. Ultimately the script has to be good for these people since they don't have that kind of star power anymore.

i just read 16 pages of crap i dnt get why fans on this forum cnt respect each anothers views but choose to instigate fans with saying the same thing over and over again each time they comment. not all of us like the srk and kajol jodi being a kajol fan i prefer to watch her with other actors than him. not all of us think aamir khan is the god of acting bt when i watched him with kajol i appreciated him and his acting and thats 1 of my fav films of him coz he and her where so perfect together. not all of think that madz is the most beautiful woman in the world and the most amazing actress the only film i have liked(and can remem) of hers is her hit with salman and the other 1 with salman and srk. not all of us think juhi is an amazing actress some of us find that her acting is annoying. bt even so for me to take away any of their accomplishments and make it seem like their success is related to another person is wrong. srk and kajol did alot of work together bt they both worked equally hard in it their success as a couple is linked together and is not only linked to 1 person. Right nw srk is a bigger star than her coz he has done alot more movies than her. Lastly instant of variety i just want kajol to do more movies and be more out there she is the reason that i started loving bw movies so i dnt care who she is paired with although dnt want her anymore with ajay to. and as for her last film we are family for me that is acrap movie no1 could hav saved no madz judi and not even sridevi the goddess of bw could hav saved that movie coz it was so pathetic and made no sense. all i wish for is that her next movie is a real comeback and nt just a movie she is doing a movie for the sake of it and after that her next movie wil be 10 yrs later.

Dont like her at all..mainly because of her offscreen persona and "I am the Best" attitude..which she most definitely is not..😆..Nothing incredible about her..Shrieky and loud and boisterous..There are certainly much more talented actresses than her out there..who have not got even quarter of what they deserved..I just consider her lucky..She managed to be with the right people at the right time..I dare her to make a comeback without the Khans..in a movie like Dedh Ishqiya or English Vinglish..then we will see..😆


I so agree with you Debu...More than her onscreen persona...its her off screen persona that puts me offđŸ„±...

[quote]Those who are saying that kajol owe her career to KJO and Srk are totally wrong. Srk had his first hit with kajol, baazigar. SRK give his iconic movies with kajol, DDLJ, KKHH, K3! Both SRK and Kajol were new at that time. SRK had no star power when DDLJ released so both of them did well because of each other.

And Karan first movie was kuch kuch hota hai and it was SRK and Kajol who agreed to do his movie so basically Karan Johar and SRK were not a big thing on 1995 or 1996.[/quote]

Is this a joke?

SRK's first hit was Deewana! After that he had another hit with Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman. He had won the Debut Award for Deewana and stole the show from Rishi Kapoor. By the time Baazigar came, SRK was already famous and an award winner. Even prior to films, SRK was a very popular TV actor. His fame and success far exceeded Kajol's.

By the time DDLJ came, SRK had already had loads of hits, a Best Debut Award, a Best Actor award, Best Villain award, and even a Critics actor award for Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naan. In Darr, he had stolen the show from Sunny Deol. Same thing that happened with Rishi earlier.

SRK had no star power when DDLJ released ... 😆

Kajol has benefitted immensely from her chemistry with SRK. Even without those movies with her, SRK would still be a super successful star. Same is not true for Kajol. Without Baazigar, KKHH, Kabhi Khushi and MNIK, she would barely have anything.

He might had debuted with deewana but he became famous with baazigar, baazigar is considered to be an iconic flim. People still remember baazigar. I don't think many people remember deewana or raju ban Gaya gentlemen. His real fame came from baazigar. As his deewana was no meine pyaar kiya or qayamat se qayamat tak!

Yes Srk had hits in the form of baazigar dear ect and DDLJ came after that. But DDLJ contributed a lot to his career. SRK is still loved as lover boy. And DDLJ, KKHH give him that tag and that tag benefited him a lot. DDLJ and KKHH earned him the star tag. Dar Kabhi ha kabhi na were good but they worked because of their story and unique concept. It was only after KKHH when Srk earned a star tag and got iconic flims in the form of DDLJ and KKHH.

So kajol contributed a lot to his success. Baazigar or DDLJ or KKHH or k3 would never had been iconic without kajol!

As far as aamir kajol are concern then yes even I hope she don't work with him again. Fanaa was great movie but aamir kajol pair never clicked to me.
But I hope she works with Srk. Kajol SRK are amazing together. They are still so fresh and beautiful together! And I also hope she works with Salman. I loved them in pyaar kiya toh darna kya. They were adorable in that movie. So I hope salman kajol work together.

Looks like I'm in the minority but I like Kajol. A person who can make it big in bollywood with a one eyebrow gets my support lol.

On a serious note, I think she's fab at what she does. She is a good actress, regardless of her personality off screen. On screen she's brilliant. We should understand the lines between reel and real life.

If we judged actors based on their off screen personalities then there would be about 5 actors who are deemed to be good out of the whole fraternity.

LOL.
I dunno much, Kajol said that its suppose to start at the end of the year, but then again she said the same thing last year. They are tight lipped about the details. I just hope that additional details are exciting and that Ajay is not in this movie (even as a director). 😛

No you are not minority here. Many people here love kajol but sadly for some people, the actor who is popular becomes overrated

It’s almost difficult to believe that Ek Villain Returns and Saiyaara came from the same director. The former was a loud, incoherent mess...
