Karan Johar directed 'Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehha' in 2006. The film starred Shah Rukh Khan, Rani Mukerji, Priety Zinta and Abhishek Bachchan in piv♏o🅷tal roles. Critics and audiences criticised it for 'endorsing infidelity'.
In an interview with The Week, Karan Johar said that if he could remake 'Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna', he woul🌠d like to correct it.
In the interview, Karan was asked if he shoul🔯d have produced a film differently, he said, “It is a tough que♓stion because I will hurt the person who made it. There are films that were emotional decisions. The only film I wish we had packaged differently was Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. I tried to bring commercial elements like big song sets and massive stars, but it is an intimate film. If I could make this film again, I will correct it.”
He added, ''Peopl🌠e said I endorsed infidelity through Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, but I said you can’t endorse something that’s already sold out''.
This is not the first time Karan expressed his regrets about the film. Earlier, at a press event in 2016, while speaking about it, KJo said, "I think it's a flawed film. And I think the mistakes in that film are entirely mine. I think I tried to do two things; I tried to do something fresh, interesting, and ground-breaking, but halfway through I also got scared. So just like my sun sign, which is Gemini, I became two people. 🌠And I think I should've just been one person, with one solid conviction.''
On the work front, in 2023, Karan donned the director's hat after a hiatus. He helmed 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' which stars Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in lead roles. Currently, he is hosting ♐'Koffee With Karan 8'.
