Before marrying Kajol, Ajay Devgan, and Karishma Kapoor were reportedly involved with each other for a significant period of time. However, none of them confirmed the relationship.
Later, it was reported that Ajay Devgan broke off with Karishma for his now wife Kajol. However, marrying Kajol didn’t stop the Singham actor from getting involved with another K-named actress.
When Ajay Devgan worked with Kangana Ranaut for Once Upon a Time In Mumbai, the rumors of the two falling for each other surfaced rapidly. In fact, some insiders went as far as claiming that Kajol has threatened to leave with kids if he continues his extramarital affair.
While it wasn’t categorically confirmed by either of the parties, Kangana Ranaut was later reported saying that it was a mistake to get involved with a married man.
