Udhaar Ki Zindagi Clocks 29 Years:
Udhaar Ki Zindagi stars Jeetendra, Moushumi Chatterjee and Kajol. This was Kajol's first author-backed role. The movie is a remake of 1991 Telugu movie Seetharamayya Gari Manavaralu which the director of this movie, KV Raju, had earlier remade in Kannada in 1992 as Belli Modagalu.
She added, “I did films that did not need every bit of my soul, learnt how to pace myself better and more importantly to fill my own bucket just so that I had more to give..
