Kajol recently did an interview with Marie Claire, during which she spoke about her superhit romantic Bollywood film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge.

Kajol was unsure about 'drunk scene'

In her interview with Marie Claire, Kajol shared that she loved the film's script, from beginning to end. However, she added that there was one song, Zara Sa Jhoom Loon Main where she wasn't sure about how it would be taken on-screen. She said that she didn't believe in herself. Kajol further revealed that she is a teetotaler and didn't know what it was like to get drunk.

However, the actor was fortunate enough and the scene turned to be good. She said that after seeing it she felt it was not bad as she thought it would be. In Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Kajol drinks brandy to keep herself warm in the cold barn. She gets drunk and goes dancing & goofing around the city which is shown in the song Zara Sa Jhoom Loon Main.

In the same interview, Kajol also spoke about her character 'Simran'. When Kajol read about Simran, she thought the character was nothing like herself, she said. She didn't agree with Simran being too devoted. Kajol further said that she questioned if Simran can't think for herself. However, she also added that she played the role dutifully and made fun of Simran on sets. The actor thought that there had to be something about Simran inside her. She said that maybe 90 per cent of Simran wasn’t in her but that 10 per cent was.
