Sharing a clip from inside the theatre, Kajol is heard cheering loudly for hubby Ajay Devgn as he appears on the screen. Alongside the clip, Kajol wrote, My theatre experience after soooooooo long! What an awesome high.. reminds us of all the things we take for granted without ever worrying about who is giving us the safety and security of just being normal.. a hats off salute to all those real life action heroes who keep us safe every day of their very unsafe lives(sic).”
