I wanted to retire at 24, reveals Kajol



It’s been two years since actor Kajol made her last big screen outing. But the actor, who’s busy being a mom to her two kids — daughter Nysa and son Yug — insists that she’s in a very comfortable space, taking things at her own pace. “I’m in no rush to get back to films, but if I do get a fab script, I’ll sign it right away,” she says. The draw, explains the actor, can only be a strong script. “I will only take up a film if it can justify my spending that much time away from my kids,” adds Kajol as she settles down for a tete-a-tete.

Q: So, how was Mother’s Day?
A: Fun! Every day, every moment I get to spend with my kids is special for me. I really like and enjoy being with them. As for my mom (actor Tanuja) well, she has fractured her hand and is in Lonavala, so I just wished her on phone.

SRK, Kajol to reunite

Undoubtedly, they are one of the most memorable couples to ever grace the big screen, and films like Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham and My Name Is Khan have traced their evolving chemistry. And after much speculation on the subject, we can now tell you that Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol will be reuniting for a new project being helmed by — no surprises here — Karan Johar.

It seems that KJo managed to get the stars to come together for a project after much persuasion. The film-maker, back in India after an extended shoot schedule in Thailand for his Student Of The Year, met up with his favourite actors to discuss the project. “A detailed meeting is still to take place regarding their roles and dates,” cautions an aide close to Karan. “But Karan did give Kajol and SRK a narration as soon as he returned to India.” If all goes well, work on the film should start by the end of the year.
