Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol have ruled hearts for decades with their unforgettable chemistry in films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. They first lit up the screen together in Baazigar, and since then, their on-screen bond has become iconic in Indian cinema.
But have you ever wondered why these two never dated in real life?
Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol: What They Said
In a fun throwback promotional interview for Dilwale with NDTV, Shah Rukh and Kajol were asked a question fans have often wondered: “Would you have dated each other if you were both single?”
Kajol responded honestly, “I honestly don’t know because I think I was already seeing Ajay (Devgn) at that point of time when we were six months into Baazigar.”
SRK, ever witty, added, “I was also seeing Ajay at that time,” making everyone laugh.
Their Real-Life Love Stories
While fans adored their chemistry on-screen, both stars had already found love off-screen.
Shah Rukh Khan married his longtime love Gauri Khan in a traditional Hindu wedding after a six-year relationship. The couple has three children – Aryan (born 1997), Suhana (born 2000), and AbRam (born 2013).
Kajol started dating Ajay Devgn in 1994, and they tied the knot in 1999 in a private ceremony at Ajay’s home. They are now parents to daughter Nysa and son Yug.
SRK and Kajol: Still Going Strong On-Screen
