Kajol teases Aamir Khan

At the silver jubilee celebration of Ashutosh Gowariker's acclaimed period drama, Kajol was invited to speak about the Lagaan actor, but instead of formality, she chose humour on the stage. Addressing the audience, the actress said, "Well, what can I say? One thing we can say about Aamir Khan is the fact that his production has definitely proved that he has great taste in movies, irrevocably good taste. Starting with Lagaan and continuing forward - and great taste in women as well."

The banter immediately drew laughter from the audience and the clip went viral on social media.

Juhi Chawla, who shared the stage with Kajol, continued the light-hearted mood. Opening up about her association with Aamir, she said, "I don't have just one word but a lot more for Aamir. If I start, I can take over the evening. Because before he began Aamir Khan Productions, he was AK and we worked together; that was his first film. Aur dekho jisne mere saath kaam kiya, woh kahan pahunch gaya (And look at the people who worked with me — see how far they have gone in life)."
