As Bollywood’s most admired real-life couple, Ajay Devgn and Kajol marked their 25th wedding anniversary on February 24, 2026, memories from their journey together once again captured public attention.
Married in 1999 in a quiet ceremony at Ajay Devgn’s home, the couple deliberately avoided media glare. Kajol later revealed that she misled paparazzi by sharing a false wedding venue address, ensuring privacy on their big day. The wedding itself was a low-key affair, partly due to the recent death of Ajay Devgn’s grandmother.
Their love story unfolded without dramatic proposals. Ajay Devgn has often said the decision to marry was simple and mutual. Friends photographed the wedding, and selected pictures were later shared with the media along with sweets.
Kajol wore a traditional Maharashtrian nauvari saree for the ceremony—an outfit she did not wear again for nearly two decades until Tanhaji: The Unsung Warrior (2020), which also starred Ajay.
Despite promising a two-month honeymoon, Ajay’s intense homesickness cut the trip short, a story the couple has often shared with humour. Over the years, they have openly spoken about their contrasting personalities—Kajol outspoken and expressive, Ajay quiet and reserved—which they believe is the key to their strong marriage.
Both actors have credited mutual respect, shared values, and the desire to stay together as the foundation of their relationship, rather than constant romance. Kajol has often described Ajay as her strongest support system, while Ajay has praised their differences for keeping the relationship balanced.
From raising children to navigating stardom, the couple has consistently chosen stability over spectacle. Twenty-five years on, their relationship stands as one of Bollywood’s most enduring partnerships—grounded, private, and built on trust rather than glamour.
