“But I made him a little uncomfortable. Even though we had breakfast at the same table while going to the studio I went in the car and he came by bus, on the way back also this would happen. He had to travel by train with the unit and stay with them in a room shared by four people. He went that way for three films, just not one,” the Karan Arjun director further added.

Karan Arjun is a special film for Hrithik Roshan too. A few days back, the actor had shared on Twitter about his experience of working in the film. He had written, “That afternoon in 1992 ( I think) when we were all sitting around dads living room with the writers brainstorming on the screenplay for KARAN ARJUN, after another long spell of silence in the room (sometimes these silences lasted more than 10-15 mins) and suddenly dad went “ek idea aaya “ and he went on to tell us how he saw the beats of the interval fight sequence, and as he talked, his emotions escalated and at the height of the crescendo in his mind he shouted “and then he screams भाग अर्जुन !!!! bhaaaaaag अर्जुन !!!!

In the exclusive interview, Rakesh Roshan also shared how he can never make Karan Arjun again. “I will never make a Karan Arjun again, because I will not be able to put that same kind of emotions. If somebody wants to remake it they are most welcome to do so. In today’s actors, I think Hrithik could play Karan, and Ranbir Kapoor could be Arjun,” he shared.

Karan Arjun will be re-releasing worldwide on 22nd November.
