'Stop making Hindi films': Internet reacts as Kajol snaps at media over Hindi request at Maharashtra Film Awards
Kajol interacted with the media at the event and responded to their questions in Marathi. While her Marathi-speaking skills impressed many, when someone asked her to repeat her words in Hindi, Kajol erupted with anger. She said, 'Abhi main Hindi mein bolu? ( Now should I speak in Hindi too?)'
'Jisko samjhna hai woh samjh lenge (Those who want to understand what I said, will figure it out)' she added in a different tone.
Video from the event has gone viral on social media, earning ire from netizens.
Reacting to it, a user on X, formerly Twitter, wrote, 'After earning so much money and fame through the Hindi Audience, Kajol says "ab Hindi mein bolun? Jisko samajhna hai samajh le'."
"Never expected such reply from u Ma'am after all we are Indian (sic),' read an excerpt from another post.
'Madam Kajol plz make film in Marathi only. Don't want to make it in Hindi (sic),' wrote someone else.
Another one demanded a boycott of Kajol and wrote, 'Kajol and her husband Vimal Kumar Ajay Devgan worked in Hindi films, earned fame and money from Hindi audience and now this hypocrite bimbo Kajol defaming Hindi language acting like a Marathi goon language warrior. She can't even speak fluent Marathi, using English words in between but don't wanna speak Hindi. Such people needs to boycott from Hindi audience asap. Ugly by face, more ugly by heart (sic).'
'Now Kajol and other Bollywood people should not make films in Hindi,' one more shared.
At the event, Kajol was honoured with the Raj Kapoor Award for her contribution towards Indian cinema. Upon receiving the award, the actress also delivered a speech in Marathi.
She attended the event with her mother, veteran actress Tanuja. The event was also attended by Anupam Kher.
Later, Kajol posted glimpses from the award show on Instagram and wrote, "Walking the same stage my mother once did, and on my birthday, no less .... feels like the universe reminding me where I come from… and who I carry with me always #LateRajkapurAward2024 #VisheshYogdaanPuraskaar.'

7 of the most iconic fashion history moments that will forever remain in our minds
Fashion has forever been more than just clothes, it's about culture, rebellion, and emotion. Over the decades, certain outfits have done more than just turn heads. They've defined eras, challenged norms, and left lasting imprints on both runways and red carpets. Here are seven iconic fashion moments that did exactly that. It was the dress that said everything without saying a word. On the same night, a documentary aired in which Prince Charles admitted to infidelity, Princess Diana arrived at a Vanity Fair party in a slinky, off-the-shoulder black silk dress by Christina Stambolian. The press dubbed it the 'revenge dress,' and it became a defining moment, not just in Diana's personal evolution, but in fashion itself. Worn to the premiere of Four Weddings and a Funeral, the black Versace gown held together by oversized gold safety pins did more than launch Liz Hurley's career, it redefined red carpet fashion. Donatella Versace later said it symbolised 'breaking the rules of elegance.' It was daring, it was scandalous, and it became one of the most talked-about dresses of the decade. When JLo stepped onto the Grammy Awards red carpet in a plunging, jungle-print chiffon dress by Versace, she didn't just make headlines, she broke the internet (before that was even a thing). The dress was searched so frequently that it led Google to invent Google Images. A dress so iconic it sparked a whole new way of exploring fashion online. No list of iconic fashion moments is complete without Rekha, whose signature style has made as much impact as her film roles. For decades, the legendary Indian actress has remained synonymous with opulent Kanjivaram silk saris, gold jewellery, and bold red lips. Each public appearance is a masterclass in elegance. Elegant, simple, and unforgettable, Audrey Hepburn's Givenchy gown in Breakfast at Tiffany's defined timeless sophistication. Paired with pearls, gloves, and oversized sunglasses, it became the blueprint for the little black dress, a wardrobe staple to this day. It wasn't just a movie costume, it has since become a fashion archetype. Rihanna is no stranger to iconic fashion moments, but her 2015 Met Gala appearance in an extravagant yellow cape-dress by Chinese designer Guo Pei went viral the moment she stepped out. The train alone required three handlers. While memes joked about omelettes and pizza, fashion critics hailed it as a genius blend of couture and cultural commentary. Love it or hate it, Lady Gaga's raw beef dress at the MTV VMAs was unforgettable. Designed by Franc Fernandez, the dress was Gaga's protest against the US military's 'Don't Ask, Don't Tell' policy. Controversial? Definitely. But like many iconic fashion moments, it sparked conversation far beyond the red carpet.
