As Kajol turns 51, here's how she built lavish real estate empire off-screen worth Rs 180.5 crore
Kajol's journey in films began in the early 1990s with her debut in Bekhudi (1992), but it was her breakthrough role in Baazigar (1993) alongside Shah Rukh Khan that made her a household name. Known for her natural charm and strong acting skills, Kajol quickly became one of Bollywood's most versatile actresses. She has played a wide range of characters—from romantic leads in iconic films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai to family dramas like Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham. Kajol's performances have always stood out for their depth and emotion, winning her praise from both critics and fans. How did Kajol surprise everyone after playing the role of villain?
One of her most surprising and bold roles was in the thriller Gupt (1997), where she played a villain for the first time. This role showed a completely different side of her acting, proving her versatility and willingness to take on challenging parts. Her portrayal as the antagonist was widely appreciated and is still remembered as one of her standout performances. How is Kajol's real estate portfolio?
Kajol's real estate portfolio is as impressive as her film career, reflecting her taste for luxury and smart investments. Her prime property is a luxurious bungalow in Mumbai's upscale Lokhandwala area, valued at approximately Rs 100 crore. This spacious and elegant home offers her family privacy and comfort away from the city's hustle. In addition to the bungalow, Kajol and her husband, superstar Ajay Devgn, own premium flat in Juhu, Mumbai, worth around Rs 50 crore. Juhu is known for its scenic sea views and is a favored spot for many celebrities, making this property a valuable asset.
Kajol has also invested in commercial real estate in Mumbai, with properties estimated at about Rs 20 crore. These commercial holdings provide her with a steady rental income, adding a reliable source of revenue to her portfolio, which contributes to total estimated net worth of Rs 180.5 crore in real estate. As per 2025 survey, Ajay Devgn's net worth was estimated to be approximately Rs 427 crore, whereas Kajol's net worth was around Rs 252 crore.
