Fanaa starred Aamir Khan, now 51, and Kajol, now 41, in the lead roles. In a series of tweets, Kunal revealed several facts about the film.
Did you know that it was Aamir who suggested that Kajol should play the role of Zooni in Fanaa? Kajol was making her first lead appearance since Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham five years before Fanaa.

Cinematographer Ravi K Chandran was responsible for the picturesque visuals in the film.
#fanaa @dop007 was the reason for the wonderful visuals & us finishing a 30 schedule in delhi in 24 days!

Aamir heard only two narrations of Fanaa and agreed to do the film.

The song Chanda Chamke was a part of Kunal's film Hum Tum starring Saif Ali Khan and Rani Mukerji. However, it was picturised in Fanaa:
