Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn, Kajol name their favourite 90s movies
While Akshay Kumar said Sangharsh was his favourite movie, Kajol picked Kuch Kuch Hota Hai and Ajay Devgn went with Zakhm
Twitter India started a fun challenge. The challenge was that Bollywood celebrities have to name two of their favourite 90s films, and nominate other people to participate in the challenge. Kajol took the initiative and now Akshay Kumar, Ajay Devgn among other stars have become part of the challenge. The celebrities are reliving the 90s by sharing their favourite movies using the newly launched emoji by Twitter. Twitter has launched this emoji to commemorate the 90s era.
