Bollywood actress, Kajol needs no introduction. She is known for her super-energetic self and bubbly nature. On the other hand, the gorgeousness is married to the handsome hunk, Ajay Devgn, who is loved for his serious personality and baritone voice for more than 24 years. They got married on February 24, 1999, in a traditional Maharashtrian wedding and are blessed with two children, Nysa and Yug. However, in a recent interview, Kajol shared how Ajay wasn't the first person in her life. Not only that, she also opened up about how she had to reinvent herself in their marriage.
In an interview with Humans of Bombay, Kajol revealed how she and Ajay Devgn weren't single when they met each other for the first time. For the unversed, Kajol and Ajay's paths had crossed on the sets of their first film together, Hulchul, in 1995. During the conversation, Kajol shared how initially they formed a beautiful friendship with each other and said:
“I was going out with somebody, I think he was going out with somebody at that point of time. And we did a film together and we kind of became friends from there.”

Further, Kajol revealed that they used to share a great bond at their workplaces. However, it was only after the destined couple had broken up with their respective partners that love started brewing between them. She recalled:
“We just started talking, became friends, then eventually I broke up, he broke up and then we became a little more than friends.”
Afterwards, Kajol was asked about the secret recipe behind her happy marriage with Ajay Devgn. To this, she mentioned that marriage is a 'lot of work' and both the actors had to reinvent themselves in order to make their relationship work. However, she also added that any married couple would agree that learning newer things and accepting each other's choices is a prime aspect of a happy married life. She shared:
“It’s got to do with wanting to work on it every day and I think that is something that any married couple will tell you that it is work, it is a hell of a lot of work, it is not easy. You have to reinvent yourself and you have to look at it differently every day. There are new things that you have to accept about each other and learn."

"People grow, and people change so I am very different from what I was at 21-22. He is very different from what he was at 30. And so, we still find each other a little interesting, I think that’s the biggest thing I can say about us right now."
