The film ‘Karan Arjun’ was released in 1995. But the story of this film and the acting of all the actors is so strong that every time you watch this film, it seems as if you are watching it for the first time. But maybe you believe the things related to this film. Because apart from Ajay Devgan, Shahrukh Khan also refused to do this film.
Very few people know that the pairing of Salman and Shahrukh was not the director’s first choice. The director of this film is Rakesh Roshan, according to him what was the contact of two real brothers for this film, but both the brothers refused to do this film. Now you must be wondering who were these real brothers, then let us tell you that these two real brothers were Dharmendra’s sons Sunny Deol and Bobby Deol. Actually both were very busy at that time. Then Rakesh Roshan took his story to Shahrukh Khan and Ajay Devgan. But both did not like the idea of reincarnation, and both decided not to do this film. But later Shahrukh did this film, for which Ajay Devgan never forgave him for this.
When Shahrukh Khan and Ajay Devgan refused to do the film, Rakesh Roshan took the film to Salman Khan and Aamir Khan. But Aamir told him to start this film after six months, but Rakesh Roshan had to start this film immediately. But when Shahrukh came to know that Aamir was busy, he called up Rakesh Roshan that he was ready to do this film. Then Rakesh Roshan told the whole thing to Aamir and after Aamir did not mind, Shahrukh was taken back in the film.
When Rakesh Roshan again narrated the story of this film to both Salman and Shahrukh, both of them had objections to some scene of the film. And Shahrukh did not even believe in this story of reincarnation. He told Rakesh Roshan that I am doing this film only on your trust. I do not know whether people will like this film or not and do not know what their reaction will be.
But the film proved to be a superhit and Shahrukh accepted his mistake and apologized to everyone because he could not believe the story and the film. Salman and Shah Rukh had become superstars before the film’s release, and the audience was desperate to see the two superstars together in a film. On the day the film was to be released, the distributors had decided not to show the film before 12 noon. But Rakesh Roshan’s phone rang only at three o’clock that day. There were no mobiles at that time, so they felt that someone was joking.
