ABOUT Kajol

Kajol: A Legacy in Hindi Cinema Kajol Devgan, a name synonymous with Bollywood's golden era, continues to command respect and admiration. Born August 5, 1973, this Padma Shri awardee (2011) has garnered six Filmfare Awards, an unparalleled achievement including a record five Best Actress wins. Her career trajectory, marked by both commercial success and critical acclaim, showcases remarkable versatility. Early roles in films like Bekhudi (1992), Baazigar (1993), and Yeh Dillagi (1994) laid the foundation for her stardom. However, it was her leading roles in the iconic romances Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995) and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) that cemented her position as a leading lady of the 90s. These films garnered her two Filmfare Best Actress awards and remain cultural touchstones. Kajol's range extended beyond romantic leads; she captivated audiences with her portrayal of a psychopathic killer in Gupt: The Hidden Truth (1997) and an avenger in Dushman (1998), showcasing her remarkable acting prowess. Post the family drama Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham… (2001), which brought her a third Filmfare award, Kajol maintained a selective filmography, delivering powerful performances in Fanaa (2006) and My Name Is Khan (2010), each earning her a Filmfare Best Actress award. Her recent ventures include high-grossing films like Dilwale (2015) and Tanhaji (2020), and streaming projects such as Tribhanga (2021), The Trial (2023), and Do Patti (2024). Beyond acting, Kajol is a social activist and contributes to Devgn Entertainment and Software Ltd. Married to Ajay Devgn since 1999, she balances a successful career with family life. Kajol's enduring legacy rests on her exceptional talent, versatility, and enduring connection with audiences.
