Kajol being a starkid, being a daughter of veteran actress Tanuja and filmmaker the late Shomu Mukherjee, had received much scope to become an actress but not to complete her studies.
At a very young age of 16 years, when she was still studying in school she got opportunity to work in the film Bekhudi which was released in 1992. Then she quit her studies and she received wider recognition and success with the film Baazigar which was released in 1993.
After Baazigar she never looked back in her career and gave hit films one after the other such as Yeh Dillagi in 1994, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge in 1995, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998, Gupt in 1997 and Dushman in 1998. In 1999 she got married with Ajay Devgn but her successful journey continued throughout 2000s.
When we refer to her education, she studied at St. Joseph's Convent school, Juhu, Mumbai. When she was in school, she liked to participate in extra curricular activities like dancing. Being a school girl she was interested to read fiction stories as it helped her ‘through the bad moments' of her life.
Infact she was interested to continue her studies after the shooting of her debut film Bekhudi but finally she had decided to drop studies to make a full time career in the film industry when she received further good opportunities to act in the films. Later she regretted upon her decision to quit her studies.
She also enrolled at DG Ruparel College of Arts, Science and Commerce in Mumbai but she couldn't continue her studies due to her filmy commitments.
Anyhow Kajol made a big name in the Bollywood, she is considered as one among the most successful actresses. She is known for her realistic strong performances and her good comedy roles. She received numerous awards including 7 Filmfare Awards and in 2011 she became the recipient of Padma Shri.
Kajol follows both the cultures of Maharastrain and Bengali as her mother is a Maharastrain and her father, a Bengali. When she was young, her parents got seperated but it didn't affect her because the matter was never discussed at home and she was looked after by her maternal grandmother. Kajol once stated that her mother Tanuja inculcated a sense of independence since she was young. She referred herself as stubborn, mischievous and impulsive at a young age.
So, Kajol is not having big qualifications in education but professionally as an actress she achieved something great. She has fluency in English, Hindi, Marathi and Bengali.
