Also read: Kajol praises Ajay Devgn, calls him a very 'hands-on producer' with Maa: 'We have made a very good film' During an interview with Pinkvilla, Kajol spoke about the sequel to Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, the 1995 film, which also starred Shah Rukh Khan. Kajol said, 'Each film has a certain amount of magic that it produces. I can't imagine DDLJ 2. Like train ke baad kya hua? Kisi ko pata bhi nahin karna hai. (No one wants to know what happens after the train leaves the station). Do you really want to know whether they fought over diapers or not? You don't want to know". She added, 'It's wonderful that it's left at the end. Train chali gayi (train left) THE END, brilliant. Now you can just leave it to imagination. They lived happily ever after". Kajol was also asked about the sequel to her hit film, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai which also co-starred Shah Rukh Khan. She said it was a different era where people believed in eternal love, adding that recreating it would be difficult in today's times. DDLJ follows two non-resident Indians, Raj and Simran, and their star-crossed love story across Europe and India, beginning on a train from King's Cross Station. The location couldn't be more fitting, with Leicester Square featuring in DDLJ in a scene when Raj and Simran first cross paths, unknown to one another, before setting off on their memorable European adventure. Directed by Aditya Chopra, the film featured Amrish Puri, Anupam Kher, Farida Jalal and Mandira Bedi in important roles. The film was a huge success at the box office. Kajol will next be seen in the movie Maa. Helmed by Vishal Furia, the horror film is produced under the banner of Devgn Films. Starring Kajol in the lead role, the film also features Ronit Roy, Indranil Sengupta, and Kherin Sharma in key roles. The film follows the story of a mother's determination to protect her daughter from the demonic curses of a haunted village. It is scheduled to release in theatres on June 27.

Kajol shoots down the possibility of DDLJ, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai sequels: ‘No one wants to know what happened after the train'
Kajol, who will soon be seen in the horror film Maa, is known for starring in some of the biggest hits of the 1990s; films such as Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kuch Kuch Hota Hai. While these films are still loved by fans, Kajol is of the opinion that they don't need a sequel. In a recent interview, Kajol said that it is often suggested to her that they should make a sequel to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, where her and Shah Rukh Khan's characters fall in love again, but she doesn't like the idea much. She also said that she doesn't wish to know what happened after her character, Simran, boarded the train scene in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge's last scene. Talking to Pinkvilla, Kajol said, 'People say you should make Kuch Kuch Hota Hai 2 when you grow older and fall in love again with Shah Rukh Khan and I'm like… the thing is, that Kuch Kuch Hota Hai was great because it was a different set of people, it was a different world. You still had people who believed in that kind of love. Like that eternal, once in a lifetime kind of love. If you ask someone today, they say that if this (relationship) doesn't work out, we have ten other options standing on that track over there so it's difficult in today's time to conceive a story that has the same belief pattern.' However, when asked if she would like to do a 'mature love story' with Shah Rukh, Kajol said she would like to see a film like that. Kajol also spoke about Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and said that she would never want to watch a sequel of that film. 'Like I can't imagine a DDLJ 2. Like what happened after the train? No one wants to know. Do you really want to know if they fought over the diapers or not? It's just wonderful that it's just left at the end and you know that the train left and it said 'the end'. Now you can just leave it to imagination. They lived happily ever after, it's one sentence, it's not a marriage so it's perfect,' she said.

When asked if there has been a film that she refused, which later turned out to be a big hit, she said, 'Yes, lots of times. Prime example of 3 Idiots. Those films were theirs. The one who has that in their destiny, they are the ones who get it.'
