- Dushman
Kajol aced this Tanuja Chandra film where she played double role – Sonia and Naina. The peaceful lives of the twins are thrown apart after a rapist, kills one of them.

‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ is another great work of Kajol. This classic story stays in our hearts rent-free. Both Kajol and Shah Rukh’s chemistry has been well-appreciated by viewers with Kajol’s funky look in the film, becoming a trendsetter back then. - Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham
Directed by Karan Johar, ‘Kabhie Khushi Kabhie Gham’ was one of his best family dramas. Kajol’s super-fun and cheerful acting skills managed to bring a smile to the face of the viewers. The strong bond between a family and love for one another even in the most difficult times were portrayed brilliantly in the film. - Fanaa
If there is another masterpiece delivered by Kajol, it has to be director Kunal Kohli’s ‘Fanaa’. The complexity of emotions – love and patriotism – were highlighted extraordinarily by Kajol in this romantic drama.
