Should marriage have an expiry date? Kajol sparks a new debate
Kajol on Marriage: Bollywood's most talented actress said that marriage should have an expiration date so that people don't suffer too much. She surprised people by saying this during a show.
Kajol on Relationship: Kajol and Ajay Devgan seem to be living a happy life. They have two grown-up children. Therefore, Kajol's assertion that marriage should have an expiration date is somewhat surprising.
She recently made this statement on her talk show "Too Much With Kajol and Twinkle." Let's explore the context of this statement and whether it should really be so.
Not every relationship is always perfect
During the show, Twinkle Khanna asked if marriage should have an expiration date and a renewal option. Guests Kriti Sanon and Vicky Kaushal said no, while Kajol was in favor.
The actress said, "I believe not every relationship is perfect. There's no guarantee you'll marry the right person at the right time. If there were an expiration date, no one would be worried for long."
Twinkle Khanna's opinion
Although Twinkle Khanna initially disagreed with Kajol's statement, saying that marriage is not a washing machine with an expiration date. However, after the discussion, she seemed to agree.
Money can buy happiness
During the discussion on "Money Can Buy Happiness," Kajol said, "Yes, money can buy happiness to a certain extent. But too much money can also take away true happiness."
It's worth noting that on this same show, Kajol, Twinkle, and Karan Johar offered a different definition of infidelity. They said that physical infidelity is no greater than emotional cheating.
How true is Kajol's statement?
From Kajol's perspective, she wasn't implying that marriages should end, but rather that if a relationship isn't working out, people should have the freedom to live together without compulsion.
This means that the concept of expiration dates and renewals allows relationships to be lived with greater honesty and understanding.
However, from a traditional perspective, marriage is considered a sacred bond in India. Therefore, issues like expiration dates can undermine the seriousness and commitment of a relationship.
