Birthday wishes on social media are always special. While some friends and family share loved-filled posts, many also take the opportunity to tease or give a candid side of the person celebrating the day. Bollywood star Ajay Devgn, who’s known to be reserved and not expressive, turned a new leaf on Saturday when he posted a cute video for wife Kajol on her birthday. And while many, along with Kajol went ‘awww’ over the post, she also joked how he didn’t need to lie to make her feel special.
The video has a voiceover asking questions for couples, about who’s more patient, a better cook and communicator, with better style, and nicer to strangers. Ajay used graphics to point all of that towards Kajol. He also wrote in the caption, “Tareef karu kya teri… Happy Birthday @kajol .” While the birthday girl posted a heart on the video first, she added it up with another comment that read, “You didn’t have to lie about the cooking you know ….”
Later Kajol took to her social media page to share a photo of her birthday cake, and wrote, “This room and this day was filled with so much love and laughter and blessings and all the good things that I can’t even name .. all I can say is that I am Blessed , I am blessed , I am blessed .. thank u to all and everyone who loves me.. I felt it yesterday .. from my friends and family to my super awesome fans .. love you right back …”
In the picture, the actor is seen in the background, speaking to someone on the phone. For the celebration, she picked an ivory co-ord set and looked lovely as she flashed her million-dollar smile. A video from the celebrations also went viral on social media where Kajol cut her cake with Vatsal Sheth, who shares his birthday with her. Their friends and family including Ajay Devgn, Tanuja, and Vatsal’s wife Ishita Dutta participated in the celebration.

Kajol is riding high on the success of her web series The Trial. A remake of The Good Wife, the series also stars Jisshu Sengupta, Alyy Khan, Sheeba Chaddha, Kubra Sait, and Gaurav Pandey, among others. She also starred in one of the shorts in Lust Stories 2.
Recently, the actor was asked about pay parity in Bollywood and she responded that one should only ask these questions after India starts making big-scale women-led films and they do as well as something like Pathaan.
Kajol was speaking at the Jagran Film Festival in Delhi and when asked about pay parity, she said, “When you start making a ‘Wonder Woman’ for India and it does equally well as a ‘Pathaan’, then maybe there will be pay equality.”
