Bollywood Friendships, Old and New

MUMBAI, (ANI) – Life has no meaning without friends. From giving us a shoulder to lean on during tough times to teaching us beautiful lessons, friends add more value to our life with their presence. A person with friends knows how the journey of life becomes more beautiful when you have people in life who act nothing less than a pillar of strength. Bollywood is no exception.

There are several celebrities who have proved that friendship exists in the industry which is known for cut-throat competition.

Kareena Kapoor Khan- Amrita Arora

Kareena Kapoor Khan and Amrita Arora’s friendship is not hidden from anyone. The two divas have been friends for over two decades now. They have always stood up straight like a pillar for each other. Recently, Kareena came out in support of Amrita after the latter faced trolling from several social media users for her.

Karan Johar – Kajol

Kajol and Karan’s friendship goes back to the time when they were simply film industry kids. However, their friendship soured in 2016 during the release of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, starring Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma and Ajay Devgn’s Shivaay. Both the films clashed at the box office. But Kajol and Karan could not stay angry for long with each other. They reunited and rekindled their friendship.
