Shah Rukh Khan, Preity Zinta and Saif Ali Khan’s Kal Ho Na Ho is one of the most loved and talked about films of their careers. The film showcases a love triangle among three friends, built on sacrifice and respect for each other’s feelings. As the film clocked 20 years on Tuesday, Karan Johar took to social media to post a special note.
Recalling that it this was the last film his father, Yash Johar, was a part of from the Dharma family, Karan wrote that he rewatches it till today. “This film has been such an emotional journey for me and perhaps for all of us, if I have gathered over the many years. To bring such a stellar starcast together with a story that has a beating heart…it’s all kudos to the entire cast and team behind the camera for making Kal Ho Naa Ho still beat strong and within everyone’s hearts. For me, this was the last film that my father was a part of from the Dharma family…and it feels surreal to have his presence in every frame as I rewatch it even till today. Thank you papa, for guiding us through everything & making stories that matter…and for always standing by what is right. I will always miss you.”
Thanking the director, he wrote, “And thank you Nikkhil for making a directorial debut that is etched forever in all our collective hearts!”
Many took to the comments section to talk how how the film is etched in their memory. Abhishek Bachchan dropped a red heart and Delnaaz Irani, who played Sweetu in the film, wrote, “Thankyou for giving me sweetu and making me a part of this wonderful journey.”
Karan Johar had originally wanted to cast Kareena Kapoor in Naina’s role but it later went to Preity.
