Kajol on Ajay Devgn and Yash Raj Films' fallout during 'Son of Sardaar' and 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan': 'I felt helpless, fights are always difficult when...'

Ajay Devgn is gearing up for Son Of Sardaar 2 that releases on July 25. The first film came out on Diwali 2012 and clashed with Yash Chopra’s swansong Jab Tak Hai Jaan. There was a fallout between Devgn and YRF for screen-space and the actor filed a complaint in the Competition Commission of India.

In an interview with The Lallantop, Kajol addressed the issue that happened 13 years ago and said, “Fights are always difficult, especially when they remain unresolved for some time. At that point, when you have a situation like that in front of you, both parties were standing for themselves.”

She added, “As somebody who was connected to both sides, I felt helpless. You have to wait for time to pass, so that the feelings subside. So that things can become ok again.”

Actor Kajol says maintaining work-life balance has always been a priority since she started acting in the 1990s and the journey became easier with the support of her family as well as the producers.

“I was one of the few people who worked on one film at a time; I didn’t do 4 films at the same time (like other actors). I used to finish one film, then start another. I didn’t work for 20 or 30 hours. I was always very clear that we would work a certain amount only, and my mom also backed me up big time on it,” the 50-year-old actor told PTI in an interview.
