New Delhi:

Kajol and Rani Mukerji arrived as friends on the most recent episode of Koffee With Karan 8. With BFF Karan Johar as host, the superstars mentioned all issues private {and professional}, their husbands included. For the unversed, Rani Mukerji is married to Yash Raj Studios scion and filmmaker Aditya Chopra, and Kajol is married to actor-director Ajay Devgn. Speaking in regards to the two husbands, Karan Johar mentioned to Kajol and Rani Mukerji: “Your husbands have a lot in common. They are very different people, of course, but they are both very low-key.” Referring to Aditya Chopra, who’s fiercely non-public, Karan Johar added, “One is not a key only. Because low-key is still a place to be. Sir Aditya Chopra is not on the keyboard,” as Rani and Kajol burst out laughing.

“With Ajay, he doesn’t go out, he doesn’t socialise. I always see Kajol; you are the face that represents the family… You go to all the functions; pick up his awards; go to the parties. You do that amazingly…You know he is not going to go, you have to still represent,” asking Kajol if she ever will get uninterested in it and what she feels about it.

To this, Kajol mentioned, “The better half has arrived – that’s my feeling 90% of the time. And the better-looking half has arrived as well.” On a extra critical observe, she added, “Why force it on somebody? There are some things, as a couple, he does better and there are some things I do better… One of the things that I do better is attend shows.”

Rani Mukerji, in the meantime, mentioned that she likes the truth that Aditya Chopra is reclusive. “When I got married to Adi, I knew everything about him and how he is. I think I liked that aspect of him. I don’t think I would have liked him if he was going everywhere. Maybe I wouldn’t have married him,” she added that since Aditya Chopra spends half his time dealing with Yash Raj Studios, she is glad he spends the remainder of the time at dwelling. “If he is out of the room, where will I get time with him?”

Rani Mukerji also spoke about Aditya Chopra and her decision to raise their daughter Adira away from the limelight. “I have to thank all the paparazzi and all the media people; they really love me because they kind of respected that,” talking about their request to not have Adira’s footage clicked. “And they know how Adi (Aditya Chopra) is and it was our decision together that we didn’t want Adira to be photographed because we have a different idea of how we want to raise Adira. So that she doesn’t feel privileged or special in school. And that would happen only if she were not be photographed. So it was the first year when I was travelling with Adira and I told them please don’t take baby’s pictures and they kind of respected that.”

Karan Johar additionally requested Rani Mukerji how Aditya Chopra manages to evade the paparazzi at airports: “Can you tell us the secret route that maybe we can also adopt at times?” Rani Mukerji defined, “No, actually he is really simple when he moves around. So, I’m actually the honeybee. I’ve to make way for my child and my husband.”
