 At the age of 17, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gham fame Kajol made her acting debut in 1992’s Bekhudi. Her film Baazigar in 1993 with co-actor Shah Rukh Khan was a hit, and since then she is constantly working in the film industry. 

People mocked Kajol for her skin tone

Kajol recalled her battle with her own skin and how she was judged for it when she first entered the Hindi film industry in recent interview. 

Kajol stated during a chat show that she was referred to as someone who wears glasses, is dark and is obese. She was not worried about it at all. Kajol was aware that she was more attractive, intelligent and superior to everyone who was criticizing her.

Struggled with her own skin

She continued by admitting that she had issues with her appearance and had trouble accepting that she was genuinely attractive. According to her, it wasn’t until she was 32 or 33 that she finally started telling herself she looked beautiful enough when she looked in the mirror.

Ms Devgan said that, she continued to be herself and never let it show, “And as I said, you fake it, till you believe it and eventually you will make it”.
