Kajol And Ajay Devgn Revisit Romance

A Filmfare exclusive with Ajay Devgn and Kajol

- Raghuvendra Singh & Rahul Gangwani

They created a hulchul of sorts both on-screen and off it ever since Kajol and Ajay Devgn were cast together in Hulchul (1995). The reel romance soon turned real and the duo got married after four years of courtship in 1999 and have been inseparable ever since. Theirs is an old school romance, such a refreshing change from the online PDA showered by star couples on each other today. In an industry known for fickle relationships, theirs has been going strong for more than two decades. Kajol still blushes when asked to speak on him and the ever reticent Ajay floods up with superlatives describing her. Presenting excerpts from straight from-the-heart interviews of Ajay and Kajol distinct as personalities, one as parents. A made for-each-other-couple unlike any other...

"Kajol has sacrificed a lot for me"

AJAY DEVGN’S focus remains work and family. RAGHUVENDRA SINGH gets the reticent actor to share how he stays calm and positive

WHAT MADE YOU PLAY A HISTORICAL FIGURE LIKE SUBHEDAR TANHAJI MALUSARE?

There’s little written about Tanhaji (military leader in the army of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj) in history books. When I read the script, I got to know about his contribution to history and the sacrifices he made. He died while keeping the Kondhana Fort from Aurangzeb (in the Battle of Sinhagad 1670). Aurangeb ka poore Hindustan par hukumat karne ka sapna adhura reh gaya. We’re (Ajay Devgn FFilms) planning to launch a franchise called The Unsung Warriors. Tanhaji is the first in that series. Under the title, we want to tell stories of unsung warriors. It’s not necessary that they should have fought wars. It could also be a person, who’s fought for society’s betterment.

HOW DID THIS STORY COME TO YOU?
