Hrithik Roshan recalls memories from Karan Arjuns sets

Hrithik Roshan has shared a nostalgic post about Karan Arjun, as the movie has recently re-released in theatres on November 22, 2024. The actor took to social media to share some photos, featuring Salman Khan and Shah Rukh Khan. He also opened up on a hilarious incident where he stopped Shah Rukh and Salman from going for a long drive all night before the shoot of the song Bhangda Paale.


Hrithik wrote, “The Karan Arjun experience Ha, I look like a young Kabir with Karan and Arjun. As an assistant , I remember minerva being the main theatre on release day. Me and dad’s other assistant Anurag ( 2nd pic in the white sweatshirt)), screened the print before the release and we were all incredibly disappointed . The print looked dark and dull. We got the the entire screen washed and as the dirt and grime dissolved into the large washcloth, we heard the manager say ‘ à¤Ã‚†à¤Ã‚œ १५ सालà¥Ã‚‹à¤Ã‚‚ à¤Ã‚•à¥Ã‚‡ बाद यह सà¥Ã‚Â�à¤Ã‚•à¥Ã‚Â�रà¥Ã‚€न धà¥Ã‚Â�लà¥Ã‚€ हà¥Ã‚ˆ (the screen has been washed after 15 years)'”.


He further added, “Another fun fact , during the song bhangda paale, one late night, a more than merry team of Shahrukh and Salman decided to leave Sariska by car and drive to delhi promising to be back by morning.I was flabbergasted and jumped ( literally ) on the bonnet of the car to stop them. The call time was
6am and I had to make sure my dad doesn’t lose the day. He didn’t.”

Lauding Salman and Shah Rukh, Hrithik also mentioned that watching them on the sets was a great learning experience as a 17-year-old. “Best on set practical acting school ever,” he added.

Shah Rukh Khans first choice for IPL team was Mumbai reveals Lalit Modi

Raj Shamani, entrepreneur and host of India’s leading podcast Figuring Out, has achieved what few could getting Lalit Modi, the mastermind behind the Indian Premier League (IPL), to reveal the untold stories behind the league’s inception, the pivotal role of Bollywood, and most intriguingly, why Shah Rukh Khan became the league’s backbone.

In a conversation, Raj Shamani draws out Lalit Modi’s vision of fusing cricket with Bollywood to create an entertainment powerhouse. “Bollywood and cricket sell in this country,” Modi explains, emphasizing how the synergy between these two cultural giants revolutionized sports entertainment in India. Raj Shamani, probed further, asking the one question that has intrigued fans for years, “How Shah Rukh Khan has been a strong pillar of IPL since the beginning?”

“I have always been a part of the glamor,” Lalit Modi began, as he narrated the story of Shah Rukh Khan’s entry into the IPL. “Shah Rukh Khan went to school with me; we are school friends. When I approached him for cricket, I didn’t know much about it myself, but I told him, ‘I just want you to be a part of it.’ He was the number one pillar for the IPL,” he added.

Lalit Modi elaborated on Shah Rukh Khan’s influence, “Shah Rukh Khan bid for a team, even though he didn’t know anything about cricket.” Opening up on the actor’s first choice being Mumbai for his IPL team, he said, “His first choice was Mumbai, but Mukesh Ambani took that. Kolkata was his eventual pick. But Shah Rukh’s real contribution was in making cricket entertaining. He brought women and children into the stadiums, which was critical for IPL’s success. That’s why we had music, cheerleaders, and a festival-like atmosphere—he turned it into an event for everyone,” Modi said.

He also credited SRK for sparking a trend of celebrity involvement. “In year one, we had to beg or pay celebrities to come. By year two, they came on their own. After seeing Shah Rukh, everyone wanted in – Deepika Padukone, Akshay Kumar, you name it. Shah Rukh’s presence turned the IPL into more than just cricket; it became a cultural movement,” he said.
