Actor Ajay Devgn has reacted to his wife and Bollywood superstar Kajol’s recent comment about if marriages should have an “expiration date”.

 

Speaking on her recently-released OTT show, Kajol reflected on the evolving meaning of love and relationships in the modern era.

 

During the conversation, her co-host Twinkle Khanna asked whether marriage should come with an “expiry date” and the option of renewal. Kajol agreed with the idea, while Khanna and guests Vicky Kaushal and Kriti Sanon disagreed.

 

“I truly believe this. What guarantee is there that you marry the right person at the right time? Having a renewal option makes sense. If there’s an expiry date, no one would have to endure pain for too long,” Kajol said.

 

With Kajol’s statement stirring a debate over the internet, her husband and actor Ajay Devgn shared his perspective in a separate interview, saying that the meaning of love has changed over time.

 

“Love has become ordinary. It’s not what it used to be. The words ‘I love you’ are now used so casually that they’ve lost their depth. Back in our time, saying ‘I love you’ was a big deal. Today, people don’t understand the gravity of those words.”

 

Actor R Madhavan echoed Ajay’s sentiments, noting that earlier generations treated love with great sincerity and even signing a card carried deep meaning. Ajay added that nowadays, “every message ends with a heart emoji or simply with ‘love’.”

 

Kajol and Ajay Devgn first met on the set of the 1995 film Hulchul. Four years later, the two tied the knot, becoming one of Bollywood’s most celebrated couples.
