Karan Johar Celebrates 9 Years of His Most Personal Film 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil'

Karan Johar, the renowned Bollywood filmmaker, took a trip down memory lane as he celebrated the 9th anniversary of his 2016 romantic drama 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil'. In a reflective social media post, Johar expressed his deep emotional connection to the project, calling it "perhaps the most personal film" he has ever made.

Johar shared a series of behind-the-scenes moments from the film's shoot, offering a glimpse into the making of this critically acclaimed movie. Released in 2016, 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' starred Ranbir Kapoor, Anushka Sharma, and Aishwarya Rai Bachchan in pivotal roles, with Fawad Khan in a special appearance. The film, written, directed, and produced by Johar under the Dharma Productions banner, explored the complexities of unrequited love, friendship, heartbreak, and emotional intimacy through the intertwined lives of the characters.

Set across London, Paris, Vienna, and Lucknow, the film stood out for its poetic take on modern relationships and its captivating music by Pritam. Despite facing box office competition from 'Shivaay', 'Ae Dil Hai Mushkil' went on to become a commercial success and remains one of Johar's most emotionally resonant works.
