No. of films Kajol did in 90s(without SRK) : 16

HIT Count of Kajol : 6(Yeh Dillagi, Gupt, Ishq, Hum Aapke Dil Mein Rehte Hai, Pyar To Hona Hi Tha, Pyar Kiya To Darna Kya)

Hit percentage of Kajol : 37.5


No. Of Films Ajay did in 90s : 25

HIT Count of Ajay : 8

HIT percentage of Ajay : 32


Kajol's box office record was better than Ajay even without SRK in 90s.

And if we compare the WHOLE CAREER :

Total films of Kajol in overall career : 28

HIT count of Kajol : 12

HIT percentage of Kajol : 42.85


Total films of Ajay in overall career : 83

HIT count of Ajay : 19

HIT percentage of Ajay : 22.89

So you can see, Kajol beats Ajay by a big margin if we compare the overall career.

I thought Ajay might have a better BO number since he has worked in almost 3 times more movies than Kajol has. But, he has given only 19 hits 😲 That's a pretty awful number considering his two deacdes old career and so many movies.

It's kind of ridiculous to compare an actresses hit percentage with an actor. In that case, Katrina would be the biggest star of all time.

I don't believe there have been many actresses that can hold a candle to male stardom, it's a sad fact, a fact nonetheless. Kajol had benefited from working with SRK and KJO in numerous blockbusters but it's hardly a testament to her star power. She's been a popular actress but more than that she's been part of one of the greatest Jodis of all time. Extremely overrated as a star and an actress IMO. She's nowhere near Ajay.

Yes, she is nowhere near Ajay because as Luna as analysed in previous page that she jas a higher hit percentage of movies.

So you're saying Kat is a bigger star than the Khans?

Because that's what that stat will prove.

The day Kat wins an award for her negative character like Kajol did for Gupt and set a precedent like her, then yeah!

Wait, are we talking about success rate or acting?

😆

I think you're confused.

Let me ask this again.

Kajol has a higher success rate than AD. You say she's a bigger star.
Kat has a higher success rate than the Khans. Why won't you say she's a bigger star than the Khans then?

In fact, Kat has been a much bigger actress, an integral part of Pop culture, an object of male desire and the clear cut #1 actress of her time while Kajol was squarely behind the HIT machine Karishma even at her peak. What's holding you back?

Maybe, because the stat you use is garbage?

^ kat has done 36 movies out of which only 15 are hit/block busters. Then how can she be a bigger star than the khans? Or for that matter, any other Bollywood actress.

even though I like Kajol, I agree that its no way fair to compare Ajay's success with hers, i feel he is more successful and a bigger star. And its untrue that he has no fans, the mass centers and equally in urban centers he shares a following, difference is that he has no social media following.

Success rates(courtesy BOI)

Katrina - 19/26 = 73.08%
SRK - 36/54 = 66.67%
Salman- 31/61 = 50.82%
Aamir- 17/25 = 68.00%

Look at that. KAT >>>> All Khans by a margin.
