Kajol feels classic Bollywood films like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham should not be remade

Bollywood actor Kajol in a recent interview has stated that classic films like DDLJ and K3G should not be remade as it would disappoint the audience. She said that these films are considered timeless classics and were successful because of their unique storylines, characters and overall presentation. Kajol further expressed that the audience has a special emotional attachment to these films, and attempting to recreate them would only lead to disappointment.

In recent years, Bollywood has seen several remakes of classic films that failed to live up to the expectations of the audience. For instance, the 2018 remake of the 90s hit film Judwaa received negative reviews from the audience and critics alike. The film failed to capture the magic of the original and was criticised for lacking originality. Similarly, the 2020 remake of the cult classic film Coolie No. 1 also received negative reviews and was heavily criticised for its poor execution.

Kajol's stance on remakes is also supported by other industry veterans, who believe that Bollywood should focus on creating new and original content instead of relying on the success of old classics. In a recent interview, veteran actor Anupam Kher stated that he believes that remakes of classic films are a bad idea and that Bollywood should focus on producing new and original content.
