The actress says she was always clear that she will do "one film a year" after marriage.

"It was the right thing for me to do at that point of time. I had been already working for around eight and a half to nine years. So, I was ready to kind of calm down on my work front and kind of take it easier," Kajol said in a statement.

"I was doing four to five films a year. I didn't want to do only that and to only live like that. That wasn't what I had set out for. So I assumed that I would get married and do one film a year. I'll be happier and be more settled," she added.

Kajol took the journey down memory lane, highlighting personal and professional incidents during an episode of Vogue BFFs. She became a part of the show with her mentor and close friend Mickey Contractor.

Talking about her signature unibrow look, Kajol said: "Actually Mickey was the one who convinced everybody that I should go with this unibrow."
 

Apart from Kajol, many other Bollywood actors are expected to appear on the show with their mentors and best friends including Sonam Kapoor and Atul Kasbekar. The show is all set to air on COLORS Infinity from September.
