Her first commercially successful film was Baazigar. She never turned around after taking the initial step in the right direction. Among others, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Karan Arjun, and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai are some of Kajol's best-known movies.


    Kajol was honored with the prestigious Padma Shri award in 2011, India's fourth highest civilian honor. Additionally, she has received six Filmfare Awards, including one for best performance in a negative role and five times for best actress.
