Karan Johar just hit us right in the feels as he celebrated the 26th anniversary of his iconic debut film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai with a nostalgic BTS montage! He blessed us with a reel featuring never-before-seen moments from the making of the cult-classic, starring Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Rani Mukerji. Taking to Instagram, KJo penned an emotional caption that had us reliving all the ¡®90s feels: ¡°Of cool neck chains, neon shirts, pink headbands, summer camp with only dancing involved, wishing on toota taaras, cheating in basketball, dosti turning into pyaar, and characters that live on forever!!¡±
But wait, that¡¯s not all for Karan this week! He and his Brahmastra bestie Ayan Mukerji just bagged a National Film Award for Best Film in the AVGC category. Sharing snippets from the awards ceremony, Karan posted a heartfelt note on Instagram: ¡°Every time I step on this stage, it¡¯s pure magic. Thank you to the audience for all the love. This is my third time here, and it still feels surreal.¡± Oh, and BTW, it also happens to mark 44 years of Dharma Productions ¨C a total mic drop moment.
KJo even gave a special shoutout to Ayan, adding, ¡°Here¡¯s to #Brahmastra being etched in history!¡±
Now back to Kuch Kuch Hota Hai¡ªthe OG Gen-Z relationship drama that gave us friendship goals, complicated love triangles, and, of course, that iconic basketball scene. 26 years later, we¡¯re still obsessed. Plus, Karan¡¯s recent return to directing with Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahani has only cemented his place in our hearts (again), with the Ranveer Singh-Alia Bhatt starrer being a major hit at the box office.
BRB, rewatching Kuch Kuch Hota Hai for the 100th time!
