On an interesting note, Kajol shed some like on Ajay Devgn's hidden culinary talent. Describing him as a fine chef, Kajol revealed, "Unki khaasiyat hai, vo kisi bhi cheez ko ek baar taste karte hai, he would know how to make it exactly the same. He would never tell you his secret ingredients for his recipes. (His specialty is that he would eat a dish once and would know how to make it.)'
Kajol and Ajay Devgn
In 1995, Kajol and Ajay Devgn first met on the sets of 'Hulchul.' After dating for 4 years, they got married in 1999. Further, in 2003, they welcomed their first baby, their daughter, Nysa, and in 2010, their second child, their son Yug, came into their life.
