On this day, 20 years ago, Bollywood fans saw some of the biggest actors in the country come together to weave a saga of love and loss. We are talking about Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham, which was released on December 14, 2001. From Poo's unabashed self-love and Rahul and Anjali's love story to the ensemble cast's easy excellence, the film gave us a lot that has withstood the test of time. And, not to forget the amazing costume ideas, songs and dance moves that are still a wedding favourite, 20 years later. On the film's 20th anniversary, Karan Johar shared glimpses of all this and more in a special tribute on Instagram.
Karan Johar shared a lovely montage video of some iconic moments and behind-the-scenes clips from the film. The video also features a voiceover by the filmmaker. Karan Johar describes the film as “a journey; a memory that is indispensable.” He further adds that the biggest challenge was justifying the icons and legends that were cast together. He goes on to describe Amitabh Bachchan and Jaya Bachchan as “living legends”, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol as “the eternal duo” and Hrithik Roshan and Kareena Kapoor as “trendsetters — then and now.”
Karan Johar also thanks the production design team led by Sharmishtha Roy, choreographer Farah Khan, costume designer Manish Malhotra and cinematographer Kiran Deohans. The video also contains a snippet of Karan Johar's father, director-producer Yash Johar talking about how moved he was to see the tagline, “It is all about loving your parents.” “I don't think anyone has ever given me a better gift in my life,” the late filmmaker can be heard saying in the clip.
“Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham became a part of pop culture. Its dialogues became a part of everyday conversations.20 years later, I am still so happy to have created something that brought so much joy to so many across the world,” Karan Johar says. He ends the video thanking fans for the continued celebration of the movie.
The caption for the video reads: “Overwhelmed with the endless love that has poured in from all corners of the world and the industry for celebrating this grand milestone that Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham hits today. Thank you falls short. A little piece of my heart for you on this day. And so it goes...it's all about loving your...family! From us to you, happy #20YearsOfK3G!
