# Kajol says Gen Z rediscovering 90s films, wants more romance 2026-08-24T15:23:57+00:00 | Entertainment | Indian Opinion Desk Corroboration: 2 independent outlets Kajol has said a new generation of viewers is rediscovering her 1990s and early 2000s films, including Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and Pyaar Toh Hona Hi Tha. Speaking to Hindustan Times, the actor said younger fans tell her these films feel fresh and romantic. She described the trend as a revival of that era's cinema, made with what she called passion and cleanliness. Kajol said her own Gen Z children, Nysa Devgn and Yug Devgn, avoid watching her films because she cries too convincingly on screen. On upcoming projects, she dismissed reports linking her to films such as Raaka and Spirit, calling 90% of such articles rubbish. She added that she will announce any new film herself when it is confirmed. ## Indian Opinion Analysis Both outlets reported Kajol's comments verbatim with no editorial slant, making this a straight celebrity interview story. Hindustan Times led with the exclusive interview format and framed the children's reaction as a lighthearted anecdote. Bollywood Hungama added context on her next film Maharagni but kept the tone neutral. There is no policy angle or dispute to weigh, the coverage is uniform and factual. Readers should take the film project speculation as unconfirmed until Kajol herself announces it. ## Coverage Coverage: 2 sources, 2 neutral - hindustantimes.com (neutral report) Straight interview transcription, no slant or commentary. - bollywoodhungama.com (neutral report) Repackages the same interview with added filmography context, no editorialising.
