Karan stated in his caption, “25 years ago I was at a party lost and confused…. A massive movie star came upto me and asked me why I was standing by a corner … I told him I had been to several actors for a part but was politely rejected … the superstars sister is close to me so he graciously said she had spoken highly of my script and that I should meet him the next day to narrate the film to him… In my wildest dreams I never imagined I would even get the opportunity of a narration... I went with a prayer in my heart and a deep desire for a miracle and narrated the first of the film like my life depended on it...&ꦰquot𝓰;
He continued, "He looked at me at the interval point ( by then I was looking like I was at the Saharܫa desert and water could keep me alive ) kindly offered me water and said "I’m on!!!" I was perplexed and said but “you are in the second half” you haven’t heard it? He said “I love your father and my sister will kill me if I don’t do this movie” and that’s how Salman Khan was in KKHH... I am deeply grateful to Alvira and my father’s goodwill for making sure I had the perfect Aman and SALMAN KHAN in my debut film!"
He concluded the caption by saying, "Gestures and stories like thi𝔉s just don’t happen today! Happy birthday Salman! So 🙈much love and respect for you always... Also 25 years later we will finally have a story to tell again... not saying any more than that... happy happy birthday."
