When Kajol revealed that daughter Nysa convinced her to do Dilwale: ‘I wanted to cry, I wanted to laugh’

During an appearance on Anupam Kher’s chat show, Kajol had revealed that her daughter, Nysa, convinced her to do the film Dilwale, by saying something that made her emotional. Here’s what she had said.

Kajol, in an appearance on Anupam Kher’s chat show in 2015, revealed that her daughter Nysa convinced her to do Dilwale, which was her seventh film with Shah Rukh Khan. It marked Kajol’s return to acting after a five-year gap.

Narrating the incident, she said, “We are guilty all our lives that we’ve given birth to these kids, and haven’t been able to spend time with them. When Rohit came to offer me this film, my daughter jumped up. She said, ‘mumma you must do this film’.”

When Kajol asked Nysa why she wants her to work and stay away from her, Nysa had a heartbreaking response. Kajol said, “She turned around and said something amazing, and I wanted to cry, I wanted to laugh. I did not know what to do besides tell her that I love her.” Nysa had told Kajol, “Just because you love me doesn’t mean you can’t love something else.”

Nysa studies in Singapore, but returned to India during the coronavirus lockdown. Kajol recently posted a picture of herself on social media, which she said was clicked by Nysa. “Just really missed wearing my sarees. So had a heyday doing this. Love the saree for all the subtle possibilities...... hmmm ! Another in house photographer.. this time my daughter,” she wrote in her caption.
