Kajol is the best actress in Bollywood today. Her mom
Tanuja , has also acted in a lot of films. Her sister
Tanisha, who acts in some T.V. programs in India,
presently employed by BPL Cable. Her dad's name is Somu
Mukherjee, and he's a producer. Acting is in Kajol's
blood. Kajol's parents are split up, though she sees both
of them, and says that she wasn't affected a great deal by
their split.
In the movies:
On occasions she has said that if she ever gets sick
of movies then she will leave the industry without any
regret. Kajol considers acting, unlike many of her
competitors, as a hobby and gives it the respect of an
artform. She concentrates more on her acting than on the
financial success of the film. Kajol has a financial
backing to not to rush into any film and give herself a
bad reputation thus saving us all some grief ! She has
been said many times to be the No.2 in the industry, after
Madhuri, but she refuses to fall into this numbering
business and has said that she respects all her fellow
actresses, and tries to do her best without worrying about
her position in the Indian film industry.
