Shah Rukh Khan in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai
Karan Johar's directorial debut, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, completed 25 years today. On Sunday, a special fan screening was hosted in Mumbai at a suburban theatre. The director along with Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji surprised the audience. Kajol gave it a miss.
During the screening, Shah Rukh addressed the audience. He said, "Is film ka humare liye bahut hi important makaam hai humari zindagi mein, humare dilo mein. Aap log thoda bahut samajhte ho, pura nahi samjhoge kyunki kuch kuch hota hai (this film is a very important milestone in our lives and in our hearts. You people understand this to some extent but you cannot understand it fully because there is something that happens)."
He further shared, "Ab pata nahi love story karu ya nahi karu, ab jawan bachcho ko karne do (now I don't know if I should still do a love story, let's leave them for younger actors)."
