Starring Shahrukh Khan, Kajol, Rani Mukerji, Salman KhanAh, guilty pleasures—filmmaker Karan Johar isthe master of them. KKHH, as it came to be called, was the first of several Johar films, alsoknown by acronyms, that sucked in audiences, often despite themselves, with gobs of sappy love.The film reunited popular onscreen coupleShahrukh KhanandKajol, who had created a sensation with their previous pairing inDilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge( 1995) and later co-starred in two more of Johar’s films, Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham( 2001) andMy Name Is Khan( 2010) . Kajol’s cousin, Rani Mukerji—who was somewhat new to the industry at the time and later became a big star, often appearing opposite Shahrukh Khan—had a supporting role in KKHH, along with heavyweightSalman Khan. Johar’s directorialdebut is the only film he’s helmed that’s set entirely in India.
