Filmmaker Karan Johar recently celebrated his 25 years as a director, with the iconic film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’s Silver Jubilee. Fans of the film know that Salman Khan made a special appearance in the romantic drama as Aman. The said collaboration between the filmmaker and actor would be a first, making the news even more exciting.
More About Karan Johar’s potential collaboration with Salman Khan
In a recent interview with Pinkvilla, Karan Johar was questioned about Salman Khan’s possible feature in one of his films. He responded, “I have the deepest respect for Salman and his entire family. My father was very close to Salim Saab (Salim Khan). The fact that Salman said ‘yes’ to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai has never left my heart. All I can say at this moment is that the relationship will hopefully find celluloid space very soon. I am not confirming it, nor am I denying it as I am superstitious about certain things. I will speak about it when the time is right.”
He further spoke about Salman Khan’s cameo in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, and said, “A lot of actors had said no for the part of Aman. And then, I met Salman at Chunky Panday’s party. He came to me and said, ‘Only an absolutely confident person will do this film, and I am that person.’ I went to narrate the film, and at the end of the first half he said ‘I am doing the film’. When I said ‘But you come in the second half’, he said, I don’t care, I know where it’s going. I really like your dad; I like your energy and am doing your film.”
The film in question will see Salman Khan play the part of a paramilitary officer and might go on floors around December 2023. There were reports that Dharma Productions was in talks with actresses Trisha, Samantha, and Anushka Shetty to come on board for the film, but is yet to cast any actors for the film.
