Kajol on Nysa, Yug growing up amid pap culture: My daughter had been hounded…
Actor Kajol, recently seen in the horror film Maa, opens up about parenting under public scrutiny and how her children, Nysa (22) and Yug (14), have coped with the relentless paparazzi culture. She tells us, 'Honestly, they've handled it with more grace than I have!' adding, 'They still are handling it with a lot more grace than I am, in fact, with a lot more acceptance as well.' File photo of Kajol She continues, 'We've had a lot of conversations over it and I know for a fact that my daughter especially has been hounded [by cameras] since she was 14 or 15, which is not correct. It was not right. Sharing how the constant media attention leads to a different lifestyle, Kajol says, 'You need security to go out, you can't do a lot of things that you probably you would have been able to do (otherwise), if you were not hounded. But also, I think somewhere down the line now that she's a little more grown up, it's a little more, I wouldn't say acceptable at all, but it's something that you have to accept, right? So we have no choice in the matter other than to change our perspective on it and handle it with a lot of dignity and grace.' Ask her if there's anything she fears most as a mother, and the 50-year-old doesn't hesitate in saying, 'The one thing you are most scared of is something actually harming your child. That's the one thing you can't come back out of. Everything else - yes, there's technology, criticism, failure, which are all things that somewhere down the line, with time and space, fix. But actual physical harm is something that you cannot fix easily and may not be able to fix at all. That is an unimaginable threat to a parent.' On whether she has been a strict parent, Kajol admits there's been a shift as her children have grown older. 'I am. I was a lot more, but I think somewhere down the line now that they've grown up, I can't really fire them too much. But, yes, I think that it's very important for them till today to understand that there are lines that you do not cross and I think that will just make them better human beings,' says the actor. When asked about the parenting values passed down from her mother, veteran actor Tanuja, Kajol shares, 'I've learned so many things (from her), unconsciously and subconsciously. Her tone of voice, her ability to stop me in my tracks wherever I was — I've inherited that. Most importantly, the one thing that I took from her was I understood finally, after rebelling for god knows how many years as a child, how important discipline was for children. It is one thing that children absolutely need to grow. It's like when you plant a tree, sometimes it requires that we put a border around it so that it grows straight and strong. That support comes from love and discipline.' 'Shooting DDLJ was like being on one long working holiday' Meanwhile, on Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge - which continues to hold the record as the longest-running film in Indian cinema history - turning 30 this year, Kajol says she always knew they were making a good film because the script was "fantastic". Summing up her experience of working on the film which also starred Shah Rukh Khan, she says, 'I had a great time. I worked with my friends and had a blast. I knew we were making a good film because the script was fantastic and we all laughed through it. We ate good food, travelled around Switzerland in a bus, and just generally had the best time. It was like being on one long working holiday." She adds, "Yes, parts of it were ridiculous, like trying to drape a sari in a cow shed and rolling down a hill by mistake. Who rolls down a hill by mistake! But I've done that. It was like [we were] running to finish, changing clothes, and before the sunsets, we would sometimes have 15 minutes for the shot. All that madness — I loved every bit of it." Ask her why DDLJ still clicks with every generation, and she says, 'It's really the film! It's everything — the script, Shah Rukh saying those lines, it's the romance and drama of the nineties in the best way possible!' Bollywood struggling to draw audiences to theatres? Kajol weighs in With 34 years in the industry, Kajol has seen Bollywood evolve. Reflecting on the post-pandemic slump in theatre footfalls, she weighs in on whether content is falling short: 'Content is king right now. People are only coming in to watch things that really make sense to go and watch on the [big] screen. We have upped our standards; we need to do it, and there's not one person who does not realise that. We are all slowly but surely upping our standards. We realise that we are at an international level, and we have to compete at that level; we're not competing at a national level anymore.'

Kajol on paparazzi culture: Nysa was too young when paps began chasing her
Actor Kajol recently got candid about the constant scrutiny has impacted her children, Nysa and Yug. Sharing her perspective on paparazzi culture and online trolling, the actor spoke about the importance of open conversations at home, and how she's taught her children to focus on what truly a conversation with India Today's sister channel, The Lallantop, the actor addressed the culture and said, 'There are two types of things happening-people running behind with phones, and then there are trolls. Both are things my kids have been dealing with for a very long time. I wouldn't say it's something new, because both have seen a lot. Nysa has seen more, and I don't know why. She was very small when photographers started following her. Even at that point, we tried to protect them, but you can't protect them completely.'advertisementShe further added, 'You can explain things to them, talk to them, and tell them that this is also a part of this world, it might feel bad at this point, but don't pay attention to it. Especially the trolls, because if you really look at it, they are just 0.5 percent. The remaining 99.5 percent are people saying good things about them. So I tell my children to focus on that 99.5 percent, those people are genuine.' 'I also try to explain to them that they need to decide whose opinion matters to them. So I think conversations like these are something every parent should have with their children,' she Kajol was last seen in 'Maa'. Directed by Vishal Furia, 'Maa' marks Kajol's first venture into horror in her over 30-year-long career. The film shares its universe with the 2023 supernatural thriller 'Shaitaan', which featured her husband, actor Ajay Devgn. Kajol stars as Ambika, a mother determined to protect her daughter Shweta from harm.'Maa' also features Indraneil Sengupta, Kherin Sharma, and Ronit Roy. The film is presented by Jio Studios and Devgn Films, produced by Jyoti Deshpande and co-produced by Kumar Mangat Pathak.- EndsMust Watch

Kajol has been an integral part of the Bollywood industry ever since she was young. Having been in the industry for over the past 2 decades, the Maa actress has seen the paparazzi culture evolve. Because of this, it's not just her or her superstar husband Ajay Devgn who have been in the limelight, but their children Nysa and Yug too have been on the radar. Talking about how these two kids have been handling the constant attention, the actress quipped that they have done it with a lot more grace than she ever could.
