Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in Karan Johar’s next film


Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol will feature in Karan Johar’s next film that follows the travails of an Indian couple post 9/11.

Kajol and Shah Rukh Khan first starred together in the romantic family drama Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), a film that was so successful it continues to run uninterrupted till date in a theater in Mumbai! Their last film together Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gam (2001), produced and directed by Karan Johar, was a huge success too.

Kajol is currently working on U, Me Aur Hum in which she is paired opposite her husband Ajay Devgan, who is also the director. In addition she has signed up for Raj Kumar Santoshi’s Ramayan. A few days earlier she had told Times of India that she would not sign any more films.

“I can’t handle any more assignments at the same time,” she said. According to a source, the dusky 31-year-old found it hard to turn down Karan Johar with whom she enjoys an excellent professional rapport. Besides, Kajol feels, while taking on more work may keep her away from her daughter Nysa it will allow her to spend more time with her husband Ajay Devgan.

Interestingly, Kabhi Khushi Kabhi Gam (2001) featured Amitabh Bachchan, another close friend of Karan Johar besides Kajol and Shah Rukh Khan. However, in view of a simmering professional rivalry between Shah Rukh Khan and Amitabh Bachchan it is moot if he or any of the Bachchans will feature in the new film.

Ravi, I used to read celeb stuff at the dentist - you know Star Dust and all but that was it but now with life being full of serious stuff and all I have found myself reading up celeb stuff to just chill out.

You know to numb the senses and relax the cells that had been on overdrive and I'm glad you commented on my site coz I loved your site. Its vibrant.
