We cannot compare. Times have changed a lot compared to 90s when Kajol was huge. Its like saying Karishma did poor work compared to Kareena. Personally I feel Karishma did better work under the circumstances she worked. The same with Kajol...if you see the sort of films releasing those days. She did take risks...though she mostly stuck to Dharma/YRF. But who wouldnt?
