The director also shared how Amrish Puri had asked him just one question when he was being cast. He shared, “Amrishji and I have been very close friends, he worked with me in Koyla and Kishan Kanhaiyyaa, so when I went to him, he asked me, ‘Do you think Karan Arjun will return?’ I said, ‘Aap jitni buri tarah se unko maarenge, who utni buri tarah se waapas aaenge aapko maarne ke liye (The more brutally you kill them, the more badly they will come back to kill you).”

Further talking about the film, Rakesh Roshan also shared, “Mostly films on reincarnation are made on love stories, this was the first time the film was made about relationship between the mother and two sons. I established that current of lovers meeting again between the two brothers.” He even shared how he never makes any changes in his scripts. “On my set, there are no scene changes or dialogue changes, whatever the actor says I won’t change. I work on the script for two years and then we go on floors,  I read it to everyone to suggest changes that time, but I don’t entertain anything on set. I don’t talk to anybody also, I never go and sit with the actors or even have a cup of tea with them. If someone comes and talks to me it disturbs me, I am so involved.”

Karan Arjun re-releases on 22nd November in theaters.
