While Promoting her next horror-thriller Maa, Kajol Devgn has been making headlines in the internet more than just her acting. Viral videos of her standing up to paparazzi are all over. There, she firmly sets boundaries and have made social media users draw parallels to none other than Jaya Bachcha. This is for her netizen called ” no-nonsense ” behavior in public. In an open chat, Kajol adressed the comparison forthright and demonstrated she’s a straight shooter. Kajol reacts to Comparision with Jaya Bachchan On social Media trolls
To the many postings calling her “scary” or “intimidating,” Kajol did not take the bait. “It’s all right if you find me scary,” she stated, before inviting detractors to view Maa—a movie in which her tough appearance serves a function, not an affect. Her wit and self-assurance convert assumed negativity into a part of her appeal.
Paparazzi Culture Ignites the Reactions
Kajol clarified that firm reactions to aggressive stalk-like paparazzi are not acted out—that they’re reflexive. “They provoke you, push you until you have to…” she said to Zoom, detailing how paparazzi run someone down and taunt in order to get dramatic responses.
“My Children See the Real Me”
Kajol described how her children react to these instances as real and not planned performance. “See, Mama, you’re so natural. What you are at home is what you are outside,” they tell her, reminding her of her natural self. In that candor, there’s maternal pride and reality-based judgment.
The public jump from Kajol’s stern moment to comparisons with Jaya Bachchan follows naturally. It’s not the first time Kajol is channeling the fiery spirit of Jaya—such as during a Durga Puja visit when she vented frustration at disrespectful public behavior. But Kajol is not fazed. She takes it instead—aware of her attitude and unapologetic in setting boundaries.
Why the Conversation Matters
This exchange places the aggressive intrusion of paparazzi culture under a spotlight, and reveals the strain stars experience in performing for the lens at all times. Kajol’s position raises a larger question: at what point does assertiveness against intrusion become contentious? Her argument is unmistakable—respect isn’t up for debate.
