ROLES CHANGED!


"Har ghadi badal rahi hai roop zindagi
Chaav hai kabhi, kabhi hai dhoop zindagi
Har pal yahaan.. jee bhar jiyo..
Jo hai samaa.. kal ho naa ho.."


Javed sahab wrote this touchy title song of..
'Kal Ho Na Ho' (2003). And in the music of.. Shankar-Ehsaan-Loy..nicely sung by Sonu Nigam! Bollywood's sensible filmmaker Karan Johar wrote and produced this after his first two directorial ventures! Superstar Shah rukh Khan - portrayed it's central intense character!

Though Nikhil Advani directed this movie, we can not ignore Karan's touch!

But in this outdoor shooting picture.. roles changed -
Karan giving pose & Shahrukh taking shot with camera!


Today is Karan - Johar's birthday

Regards to him!!
