Karan Johar’s directorial debut Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is one of the best romantic films made in Bollywood. We all loved the characters of Rahul, Anjali, and Tina, and Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol and Rani Mukerji won awards for their performance in the film.

Last year, when the film completed 20 years of its release, the makers had organised a huge event which was attended by the cast of the film and a lot of big names from Bollywood. Well, today the movie completes 21 years of its release and Karan Johar took to Twitter to thank everyone for making the journey of Kuch Kuch Kuch Hai a timeless one even after 21 years.

Karan tweeted, “Firsts are always special! The cast, crew, music & the heart & soul of this film was all in the right place❤️ Thank you for making this journey a timeless one even after 21yrs! #21YearsOfClassicKKHH @iamsrk @itsKajolD #RaniMukerji @BeingSalmanKhan @apoorvamehta18 @DharmaMovies.”

Kuch Kuch Hota Hai also starred Salman Khan in a pivotal role.

Nowadays there's a trend of remakes going on and we won’t be surprised if soon it is announced that even Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is being remade. Karan Johar a few months ago had also opened up about his dream cast for the film’s remake. He had stated, "On my wish list would be Ranveer Singh as Rahul. He has that mad intensity as Shah Rukh Khan. Alia Bhatt as Anjali, she has the spunk and Janhvi Kapoor as Tina because she has the poise and balance of the part.”

However, we hope that a remake of Kuch Kuch Hota Hai is not made and even if it is, we would love to watch SRK as Rahul, Kajol as Anjali and Rani as Tina.

Just quiet heartbreak.
