Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham

This 2001 family drama by Karan Johar was a big hit commercially and we all loved Kajol's portrayal of the vivacious and crazy Anjali from Chandni Chowk. And how can we forget her romancing Shah Rukh in the song Suraj Hua Maddham? Sigh!

Baazigar

Looks like Kajol fits the bill quite perfectly when it comes to thrillers. Her portrayal of Priya Chopra, a young woman determined to find her sister’s killer in this 1993 crime thriller, was widely appreciated. This was Kajol’s first commercial success and after that there was no looking back for her.
