Summary Karan, who launches press show of Lunch Box, admits in every film he made there was a mistake.
MUMBAI (Web Desk) - Filmmaker Karan Johar s Kal Ho Naa Ho left many teary-eyed, thanks to the sad conclusion of the 2003 film. Now when he watches superstar Shah Rukh Khan dying on the hospital bed, Karan wishes the film ended in a different way.
The 41-year-old, who made his directorial debut with Kuch Kuch Hota Hai in 1998, admits that he made mistakes and conclusion of Kal.. was one of them.
"Every film is a new mistake. When I see Kuch , now I feel what a ridiculous story, when I see Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham , I think it is 35 minutes too long, Ka. , I wish I had changed the end, Student of the Year , I wish it had more of emotional intensity.
So, every film is a new mistake," Karan told reporters post press show of The Lunchbox here.
The son of late producer Yash Johar said that his father had a major role in changing the conclusion of Kal Ho Naa Ho that also stars Saif Ali Khan and Preity Zinta.
"It was my father s decision to show him (Shah Rukh) lying on the hospital bed. I was ending it far more differently, but he said Agar bada star ho toh usko marte huye dekhna chahiye, audience ko rona hai , (if it s a big star, we should show him dying as the audience wants to cry)," said Karan, who will direct another film next year.
