Rani Mukerji said she was in touch with her contemporary Aishwarya Rai Bachchan more in the 2000s than her cousin sister, actor Kajol.

The latest episode of Karan Johar’s Koffee With Karan season 8 was all sugar and spice as the guests on the show — Kajol and Rani Mukerji — were at their candid best, something the celebrity chat show has lacked so far.

In the rapid-fire round, Rani gave some fiery answers to Karan’s questions. When Karan asked her who would she have enjoyed sharing the couch with if not Kajol, she responded, “I think my husband (Aditya Chopra) because I know he’d never come.”

When Rani was asked who she had better chemistry with — Salman Khan, Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan or Aamir Khan, the actor said she had a better chemistry with SRK.\

Karan also asked Rani, “Aishwarya or Kajol, who did you share lesser words in 2000s?” She candidly replied, “Kajol.”

At the beginning of the episode, Rani and Kajol had shared that they were never close to each other during their younger days. But there was no specific reason as to why they didn’t interact with each other despite being cousins. However, Rani mentioned that she was closer to Kajol’s sister Tanisha and Kajol shared a better equation with the boys of their family. Kajol and Rani got closer after the death of their fathers.

Koffee With Karan season 8 is streaming on Disney Plus Hotstar.
