[edit] Fan comments on the page about the purported KHAN movie were removed

There is no definitive announcement over this movie and the supposed comments made about why Kajol decided to do this movie and so on were unsourced and pure hearsay in nature.

[edit] Pyaar Tho Hona Hi Tha over Karan Arjun

Check your sources once again, you'll find Pyaar Tho Hona Hi Tha was one of the major hits in Kajol's career and most certainly a bigger success than Karan Arjun financially (box office).

Well, no. IBOS says that Karan Arjun was Number 5 for the 1990s, and PTHHT was only Number 32. Zora 08:59, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
Yes, that was my mistake, I checked it at IBOS as well. But I found something else, her fifth biggest movie is not Baazigar, it's Ishq. Source - http://www.ibosnetwork.com/clsActorDisplay.asp?actor=Kajol&layout=filmography. So that change will be made.

[edit] Ah, OK, Baazigar, Kuran Arjun

I just checked IBOS and those two films were in their list of top 90s hits. So OK. Zora 22:38, 29 November 2005 (UTC)

[edit] an actress who rox

KAJOL RULES! I WANT KAJOL TO COME BACK AND START ACTING AGAIN BECAUSE SHE RULES! AND REMEMBER......KAJOL ROX

[edit] Miscarriage

It is no one else's business if Kajol did or didn't have a miscarriage. If it didn't kill her, it's NOT NOTABLE. Sheesh, give the woman some privacy. Zora 09:37, 11 February 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Scripts

I replaced the various scripts with IPA and ITRANS, as a result of a discussion at the village pump and Indian Cinema Project. Essentially, the consensus seems to be that allowing the different scripts can lead to confusion, especially for multi-ethnic persons. So instead, the best option is to use IPA (for pronounciation), and ITRANS (for spelling in all Indic scripts). The ethnicity of the actress is mentioned elsewhere, and so it isn't necessary to reiterate it. Gamesmaster G-9 23:26, 27 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Wrong Spelling!

The Bengali version of Kajol's name is spelt out as 'Dovégan' instead of 'Devgan'. Please correct it. --Tulona —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 202.22.204.60 (talk) 12:43, 5 February 2007 (UTC).

[edit] ITRANS transliteration

As you can see both from Devanagari and Bengali, the "a" in Kajol is long. Therefore it should be either "kaajol" or "kAjol" in ITRANS.

I disagree. It is possibly right what you're saying here, but Kajol's name is spelled as simply Kajol in ALL of her films, and she hasn't ever raised some concerns, nor will we do that. Regards, --Shahid • Talk2me 22:44, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

It depends on the purpose of transliteration. If the name is written just for normal English/American readers, long vowels are not marked, dental and retroflex consonants are not distinguished and final "v" after long "a" is transliterated as "o" (e.g. राव = Rao) because it is close to its pronunciation. Also the first letter is capitalized. However, if you type "kajol" into ITRANS or in Velthuis transliteration (in Velthuis Devanagari for TeX), you will get कजोल in Devanagari or কজল in Bengali which is not correct.
