why are u all fighting all- KAJOL ;KAREENA;MADHURI ARE BEST IN THEIR OWN WAY AND THEY ARE ALL FROM DIFFERENT phase of bollywood !!!!! why should we compare ...!!! everyone is unique
Sriman 20 Sep 2010 09:11 am
exactly, this is what everyone should understand and do not twist facts Kajol is an actress after Madhuri's ruling while Kareena is after Kajol. So at one point they cannot be compared. It will be like comparing amitabh and srk box pull pull at this time, of course srk will be way ahead today
sindhu 13 Sep 2010 05:44 pm

KAJOL is the real star of we are family (not kareena) which every one knows and every one is appreciating KAJOL'S performance devdas had SRK thats why it was a hit + WAF has done much better business in india as well as abroad as compared to aaja nachle...(and what all these age statistics are u showing)...even madhuri said that she was inspired by kajol's comeback in FANAA !!!
ayush sachdeva 09 Sep 2010 06:11 pm
absolutely true !!!
darshpreet 15 Sep 2010 08:59 am
kajol is my favorite actress and i adore her very much she is so natural someone rightly said that kajol is the most loved actress after madhubala !!!
Shelly 10 Sep 2010 04:35 pm
No Aja Nachle diod much better in UK and Australia and In southafrica as well.
Roshni 10 Sep 2010 04:39 pm
It seems you smoke drug do you know what kind of star Kareena today?? Kajol is no star, eevn of the film did well it is because of Kareena. And your are right kajol is existing for srk and karan.
best 14 Sep 2010 05:36 pm
what a joke.....read what critics and people are saying !!!
arun roy 14 Sep 2010 05:53 pm
kareena is far smaller as a star as compared to kajol !!!!
kushal 15 Sep 2010 08:56 am
kajol is existing because of srk and karan .... so hilarious KAJOL is here for her talent my dear in fact she has won 4 filmfare best actress awards for her talent (not for doing a srk or kjo film) some people are just jealous !!!!
fun 20 Sep 2010 09:45 am
you are again doing a mistake acting ability has nothing to do with stardom or box office pull, otherwise salman or akshay kumar would not be a star. Kajol is good actress but she is not a star like Kareena (also a good actress) is today.
Shelly 10 Sep 2010 04:43 pm
if you had brain you would understand the meaning of age statistics!! That is exactly what such stupid articles want to say, but they misinterpret.
neil 14 Sep 2010 05:39 pm
u dont seem to have brain, people go to watch a film for entertainment and not for younger stars....!!! if u want to compare then compare devdas with k3g and aaja nachle with fanaa !!!
addy 15 Sep 2010 08:47 am
u dont seem to have a brain. i didnt want to be rude but since u r writing such things i would like to tell u a fact that in a book on bollywood it is clearly mentioned that kajol has proportionately delivered more hits and has a better track record than madhuri and sri devi. but i would like to add that all KAJOL,MADHURI,SRI DEVI ARE OUTSTANDING AND THE BEST ACTRESSES OF BOLLYWOOD..!!!
Heera 20 Sep 2010 09:16 am
Not at all Madhuri is the biggest star in terms of price, box pull. Any trade ananalsyt say that Madhuri is the last female superstar who could change the price of a film. Truly, Madhuri is known as an fine actress, classic beauty and superstar, while Kajol is known as a fine actress, unconventional beauty and a star but not the way Madhuri was.
Heera 20 Sep 2010 09:18 am
proportionate does not matter, in that sense Saira Banu mcuh better proportion and Katrina has the best
Shelly 20 Sep 2010 09:24 am
Madhuri and Kajol are the best actress of bollywood, I agree.
Heera 20 Sep 2010 09:31 am
addy I totally agree on that Madhuri and Kajol are the best, period.
Shelly 10 Sep 2010 05:20 pm
I do not have any intention to undermine anyone, I know what Madhuri is and what is her status in bollywood. AN was a flop film, true! But it is also true all review said it was only for Madhuri it was watchable and they praised Madhuri a lot and bashed the film very well. In fact Rediff, indiafm, filmfare, ndtv, cnn-ibn all said the film should have been better made as it was Madhuri film. NYT even said Madhuri still got it. As for UK BOX office, it did came 1 step ahead in the 2nd week, which...
Shelly 10 Sep 2010 05:21 pm
which was a rare feat for a bollywood movie. In Australia when sunidhi chauhan came they made the advertisement with The song Aja Nachle, in a market like Australia it ran for 23 days. In South Africa it was among top 5 Indian film of that year. In the US, according to New York based AVS all the viewers liked Madhuri a lot, but was disappointed with the film. As an actor that is enough. Mind it, among females, it is only with Madhuri a big banner can think of a film without any lead man and...
shelly 10 Sep 2010 05:22 pm
without any lead man and with offbeat but actors. This is one of many things that show what Madhuri is!! You may praise Kajol as many times as you like but don’t you realise it is immoral to misinterpret someone else’s status to benefit one? The age thing I said as actually kajol is ana actress of next generation to Madhuri not only by age but also by start year. So they cannot be compared at the same time as Madhuri is much older, Kajol can be compared with priety , amsha, karisma (though all...
addy 15 Sep 2010 08:54 am
i am not saying any thing against madhuri....i am a very big fan of madhuri and adore her but it was u who was misinterpreting someone else's status to benefit one....u started all this useless debate!!! i would like to end it by saying that both MADHURI AND KAJOL ARE THE BEST ACTRESSES OF BOLLYWOOD AND THAT A FILM BECOMING A HIT ISN'T ALWAYS IN THE HANDS OF ACTORS .... if a film is not doing well it doesn't mean that the actors are not good enough !!!!! madhuri and kajol both are and will...
Shelly 20 Sep 2010 09:20 am
You know something actually I wrote it in reply to other article of one India where they unnecessarily undermined Madhuri. I totally agree with your this comment. Regards
Shelly 20 Sep 2010 09:48 am
and I wrote is here only as they were not publishing my one over there and as this is also a oneindia article I posted it here. I love and like Kajol it is true but when I said, " misinterpreting someone else's status to benefit one" it was about them.
addy 15 Sep 2010 08:43 am
i also would like to add that not many critics said good for we are family but everyone praised kajol"s performance very much !!!
Heera 20 Sep 2010 09:21 am
Definitely addy you are right
