Name - Kajol

Birth Sign - Leo

Birth - 05 Aug 1975 

Status - Married - Ajay Devgan

Debut Movie - Bekhudi - (1992)

Kajol S. Mukherjee was born in August 5, 1975 with Leo as Zodiac sign in Mumbai. She is married to Ajay Devgan. Kajol comes from a family of female actresses including her grandmother Shobhana Samarth, who she's close to, was a great actress in her time. Her aunt Nutan, another legend in the yester-years. Her mom Tanuja, has also acted in a lot of films. Her sister, Tanisha, acts in T.V. programs in India. Her dad Somu Mukherjee, a producer. 

Since her debut in the Bollywood arena in 1992 in the film Bekhudi she has played a wide variety of roles varying from the lovely bride in Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge to the violent villain in the film Gupt. 

Touted as one of the best actresses in the Bollywood industry, Kajol, who is of Bengali-Marathi descent, in fact belongs to a family tree with a long respectable history in the Indian cinema. 

Her mother Tanuja is a Marathi/Hindi actress whilst her father Shomu Mukherjee is a film producer. 

Late maternal aunt Nutan is the record holder for the most (five times) Filmfare awards for an actress. Late maternal grandmother Shobhna Samarth and great grandmother Rattan Bai had both been influential figures in the early Bollywood film industry. 

Her paternal uncles are also film producers; Joy Mukherjee and Deb Mukherjee. Kajol's grandfather Sashadhar Mukherjee was a film director and producer who had left a great achievement in the Bombay film industry. His wife Satirani Devi, Kajol's paternal grandmother, was the sister of three great film personalities, Ashok Kumar, Anoop Kumar and Kishore Kumar. 

Kajol's cousins Rani Mukerji, Sharbani Mukherjee and Mohnish Behl are also Bollywood actors. Kajol's younger sister Tanisha Mukherjee has recently started a film career. 

Kajol is now married to Bollywood actor Ajay Devgan and has a daughter named Nysa, which means Goddess of purity. 

Kajol left school and started her career at the age of seventeen. Her debut film was Bekhudi in 1992. It was not a great success at the box office, but Kajol was noticed and went onto become a successful actress with many box office hits to her credit. 

Kajol shot to fame with her second film Baazigar in 1993 which was her first major hit. She went onto make a popular pairing with her Baazighar co-star Shah Rukh Khan in Karan Arjun (1994), Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Kuch Kuch Hota Hai (1998) and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham (2001). 

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge was so well received that, as of April 2007, it is still showing in a Mumbai
cinema, an eleven-year continuous run. Kajol received her first Best Actress Award from Filmfare for her performance in the film. 

In 1997 she starred in Gupt: The Hidden Truth which was one of the highest grossing films of that year and her performance was a significant development for female actors in Bollywood; she was the first female actor to win the Filmfare Best Villain Award. Her second Filmfare Best Actress Award was received for her performance in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, which was the biggest hit of that year. 

She also made a successful screen couple with husband Ajay Devgan in movies such as Ishq (1997) and Pyaar To Hona Hi Tha (1998). 

After the successful Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham in 2001, for which she won several Best Actress Awards including her third Filmfare Best Actress Award, she took a sabbatical from full time acting for five years. She gave birth to her daughter Nysa in 2003. A few months after her delivery, she made a brief cameo appearance in the 2003 film Kal Ho Naa Ho. 

Before her comeback to the silver screen, in 2005, Kajol had already started acting actively in advertisements, mostly with her husband Ajay Devgan. In May 2006, she made a successful comeback in Fanaa, one of the highest grossing films of the year. She won her fourth Filmfare Best Actress Award for her performance in this movie, portraying a blind Kashmiri girl who fell in love with a Kashmiri independence fighter. Her fourth Filmfare Best Actress Award places her at par with other famous Bollywood actresses, Meena Kumari and Madhuri Dixit, each of whom holds 4 Best Actress Awards from Filmfare. Kajol's late aunt, Nutan is holding the record for five such awards. 

Later in August 2006, she made a brief appearance in her friend Karan Johar's Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna in the "Rock n' Roll Soniye" song. This was the film for which she was offered her comeback role, but which she declined over Fanaa instead.
