As Kal Ho Naa Ho re-releases in theatres today, filmmaker Karan Johar could not resist looking back in time and cherishing the moments he created while making the hit film, which starred Shah Rukh Khan, Saif Ali Khan and Preity Zinta in the lead roles. Taking to Instagram, Karan dropped a video showcasing iconic scenes, dialogues, and songs from the movie. "Hasso, jiyo, muskaraao.
..AAJ kyunki kya pataa kal ho naa ho! A film extremely close & special to my heart.
..now back on the big screens for you all to witness and celebrate again," he captioned the post.
Karan served as a producer on the film, while Nikkhil Advani directed the project. Released in 2003, Kal Ho Naa Ho also features Saif Ali Khan and Jaya Bachchan. It revolves around Naina Katherine Kapoor (Preity Zinta) who is an MBA student in New York.
She falls in love with her neighbour Aman Mathur (Shah Rukh Khan), a terminally ill patient who tries to get Naina and her friend Rohit Patel (Saif Ali Khan) to fall in love with each other since he fears she will grieve for him if he reciprocates her feelings. On film's 20th anniversary last year, producer Karan Johar penned a lengthy post saying, "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 star cast 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 he.
