Karan Johar pens a heartfelt note for Salman Khan on his birthday; expresses excitement about reuniting with him after 25 years

On the occasion of the 58th birthday of Salman Khan, while wishes are pouring for the superstar from across the world, filmmaker Karan Johar decided to pen a long heartfelt note. Tracing his journey with the star from his debut directorial Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Karan in the note, expressed his happiness as he will be reuniting with the actor for his next big budget entertainer, titled The Bull.

Speaking about his first interaction with Salman Khan when he was approached for the role of Aman in the romantic drama Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, Karan Johar said, “25 years ago I was at a party lost and confused…. A massive movie star came upto me and asked me why I was standing by a corner … I told him I had been to several actors for a part but was politely rejected … the superstars sister is close to me so he graciously said she had spoken highly of my script and that I should meet him the next day to narrate the film to him…”

He went on to add, “In my wildest dreams I never imagined I would even get the opportunity of a narration … I went with a prayer in my heart and a deep desire for a miracle and narrated the first of the film like my life depended on it… He looked at me at the interval point ( by then I was looking like I was at the Sahara desert and water could keep me alive ) kindly offered me water and said “ I’’m on!!! “ I was perplexed and said but “ you are in the second half” you haven’t heard it? He said “ I love your father and my sister will kill me if I don’t do this movie” and that’s how Salman Khan was in KKHH ….”

He also expressed his gratitude towards Alvira Agnihotri (ni. Khan) and concluded the note saying, “I am deeply grateful to Alvira and my father’s goodwill for making sure I had the perfect Aman and SALMAN KHAN in my debut film! Gestures and stories like this just don’t happen today! Happy birthday Salman ! So much love and respect for you always …Also 25 years later we will finally have a story to tell again… not saying any more than that ?? happy happy birthday” and dropped several heart emojis.
