Rakesh Roshan’s Karan Arjun has re-released in cinema halls this Friday and emerged the 2nd highest opener in the history of re-releases. The re-release has collected Rs 30 lakhs on its opening day.
Social media has been abuzz with Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan fans celebrating the only film featuring the two superstars as main leads.
The audience is seen celebrating the iconic brotherhood of Karan – Arjun aka Salman – SRK, the chartbuster music by Rajesh Roshan, while recalling evergreen dialogues from the film.
To mark the occasion, Hrithik Roshan too shared his memories from the set of Karan Arjun where he was an Assistant Director. Taking to social media, Hrithik Roshan wrote, “The Karan Arjun experience
Ha, I look like a young Kabir with Karan and Arjun .
As an assistant , I remember minerva being the main theatre on release day. Me and dad’s other assistant Anurag ( 2nd pic in the white sweatshirt)), screened the print before the release and we were all incredibly disappointed . The print looked dark and dull. We got the the entire screen washed and as the dirt and grime dissolved into the large washcloth, we heard the manager say “ आज १५ सालों के बाद यह स्क्रीन धुली है “
Another fun fact , during the song bhangda paale, one late night, a more than merry team of Shahrukh and Salman decided to leave Sariska by car and drive to delhi promising to be back by morning.I was flabbergasted and jumped ( literally ) on the bonnet of the car to stop them. The call time was 6am and I had to make sure my dad doesn’t lose the day. He didn’t.
Watching Salman and Shahrukh act was a huge learning for me as a 17yr old. Best on set practical acting school ever.
KARAN ARJUN is running in theatres again.”
Produced and Directed by Rakesh Roshan under the banner name of FilmKraft Production, Karan Arjun also stars Rakhee, Kajol, Mamta Kulkarni, Amrish Puri, Johnny Lever, Ashok Saraf along with an elaborate ensemble cast. The film is running successfully in theatres upon its re-release.
