Says Karan Johar
“Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani’ has turned out to be a hit.
As per Karan Johar the time he’s spent with childhood friend Twinkle Khanna and Akshay Kumar may have inspired the story of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani.
The storyline of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani may have several real-life examples.
One of them was a power couple in Bollywood.
In a new interview with a leading tabloid, director Karan Johar asserted that Akshay Kumar and Twinkle Khanna may have subconsciously inspired the lead characters of his new directorial.
In the midst of his recent release of Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani Karan revealed that it was inspired by Akshay Kumar Twinkle Khanna -“May be subconsciously.
Both Akshay Kumar and Twinkle share a tremendous bond in their marriage.
Karan had dinner with them, hung out with them. And there’s a terrific kind of comfort in their camaraderie. He finds her hilarious, she finds him hilarious, for different reasons. So he felt it wasn’t impossible for people who come from two different demographics of society, two stratas, to actually find love. It’s like we put ourselves in boxes.
Like when we’re finding a relationship, we put ourselves in places where we’re comfortable. But tomorrow, you can fall in love with someone anywhere,” Karan said in the interview.
Akshay and Twinkle started dating while working together on the sets of Umesh Mehra’s 1999 action film International Khiladi. They got married in 2001, and went on to have a son, Aarav, and a daughter, Nitara.
Karan went to the same boarding school in childhood as Twinkle, before he left the school. He wrote the character of Tina (named after Twinkle’s nickname) in his 1998 directorial debut Kuch Kuch Hota Hai for her, but she rejected the part. The role was eventually essayed by Rani Mukerji. Karan and Twinkle remain thick to this date.
