Bollywood actress Kajol is one of the few actresses who have collaborated with all three Khans Shah Rukh, Salman, and Aamir. In a recent interview to Galatta India, she looked back at the unique characteristics of each of them and talked about Salman Khan’s unparalleled star power.
Praises for Shah Rukh and Aamir’s Professionalism
Kajol heaped praise on Shah Rukh and Aamir’s professionalism, stating that both of them deserved all the trophies when it comes to dedication, as they are very, very serious about their craft and discipline. However, while talking about their work. Kajol said, “Salman is Salman Khan. You can’t argue with that. He’s remained the same over the years, and that in itself is incredible. Even Aamir once said, ‘Salman is definitely a bigger star than me, because no matter how his film performs, it still manages to cross ₹100 crore. And his fans adore him like crazy.’”
Kajol on Star Power Debate Between Salman and Akshay
When informed that Akshay Kumar has matched Salman in terms of box office with 18 films crossing the ₹100 crore mark, Kajol said, “Wow, that’s amazing! But when we talk about sheer star power, I think even Akshay would agree you just can’t touch Salman’s star power.”
Salman and Kajol have shared screen space in movies like Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya, and Karan Arjun. Their on-screen presence in Pyaar Kiya Toh Darna Kya particularly won over the hearts of viewers.
Upcoming Projects of Kajol and Salman
