Kajol has said no to the sequel of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, reasoning that no one wants to know what happened to the central characters, Raj and Simran after the iconic train scene. The film starred Shah Rukh Khan in the lead alongside Kajol and was directed by Aditya Chopra.
Speaking about the possibility of the sequel, Kajol said, “They should never make DDLJ 2. They should leave it at Simran climbing the train. Nobody should care what happened post that—kisne kisko maara hai, kitne bachche hue (who fought who, how many children they had). We don’t discuss marriage after that. It’s done and dusted. Nobody wants to know what happened to Raj and Simran after the train scene.”
Kajol also spoke of the bond she shares with Shah Rukh and said, “We’ve done too many movies together at different phases of our lives. We got married, we had our kids, we led our separate lives. We’ve been friends for a very long time. We’ve seen each other grow. It is a lifetime of working with each other, and great friends are all about being with you throughout it all.”
Meanwhile, on the work front, Kajol will be seen next in the supernatural horror-film Maa, which is set to be released in theatres on June 27.
