Karan Johar’s Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani hit the Indian cinemas amidst two Hollywood biggies ‘Barbie’ and ‘Oppenheimer’ starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling and Cillian Murphy, respectively. Both the films took the ticket windows by storm with their crazy collection, which seemingly made Karan Johar nervous, reveals the filmmaker. Despite the ‘Barbenheimer’ wave, Alia Bhatt and Ranveer Singh starrer hit the screens only to take it by storm, outperforming both of them.
In a recent interview, KJo opened up about feeling anxious seeing ahead of the film’s release. The filmmaker revealed that he decided to release the film for those who have grown up watching Hindi film music. Scroll down for details.
Speaking about the same, Karan Johar told Variety, “At first I had apprehension and fear and then there was deep-rooted anxiety because both these films also performed very well in India. So even the Gen X, Gen Z kids, the millennials and the boomers, who’ve grown up watching the old Hindi film music, all of them collectively love the film for various and different reasons. Because otherwise you lose an audience when you try and be extra preachy and try and give a sermon that doesn’t actually connect to you in an emotional way because you’ve got to love the people, then love what they say.”
