If you're obsessed with celebrity feuds like I am, you've probably heard about Bollywood's best friends Kajol and Karan Johar falling out in 2016. It was a terribly dark time.
The falling out happened when Karan's Ae Dil Hai Mushkil clashed with Kajol's husband Ajay Devgn's Shivaay at the box office. Karan wrote about it extensively in his autobiography An Unsuitable Boy, "I don’t have a relationship with Kajol anymore. It’s over. She can never come back to my life. I don’t think she wants to either. She was the one who mattered to me but now it’s over." Calling relationships "generally difficult", Kajol refrained from commenting on the rift. The friendship was dead. 😭
However in August, the friends started gravitating back towards each other with sweet gestures on social media. Kajol liked this picture of Karan's babies on Instagram, Karan followed her back and uploaded a throwback photo captioning it "Lifetime Bonds".
Kajol also invited Karan for her birthday and that's where they wholeheartedly buried the hatchet.
Personally, as a KJo-Kajol stan I couldn't be more grateful for this reunion. To celebrate, let's look at the cutest, sassiest, most hilarious moments from their two-decade-long friendship.
