Filmmaker Farah Khan who choreographed the Kuch Kuch Hota Hai movie revealed an interesting insight about the movie. During an interview with Radio Nasha, Farah Khan revealed how SRK felt that he was too old to play a college student in Kuch Kuch Hota Hai as he was 30 years old at that time. Moreover, Farah Khan also shared how Main Hoon Na was originally a small movie about a college drug bust, headlined by Shah Rukh.
Farah Khan on Shah Rukh Khan doing KKHH and Main Hoon Na
“After Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, I just wanted to make a young film. Shah Rukh ne mar mar ke Kuch Kuch Hota Hai kiya, he used to say I am too old to play this college boy and he was 30 that time! So I reverse engineered Main Hoon Na. I wanted to make a college film only with Shah Rukh. But why will Shah Rukh go to college, so the whole thing worked backwards. That if he has to go to college, he will go undercover,” she said.
“It started out as a small movie about Shah Rukh bursting a drug ring in the college, where his brother is also there and Shah Rukh falls in love with the chemistry teacher. But while writing I kept feeling this is a bit small, and then the whole India-Pakistan, Project Milap, Raghavan (Suniel Shetty) bits kept adding and the film grew.” Farah added.
