    Karan Johar suffered from loosies during K3G shoot; says ‘I literally went behind the biggest limestone statue’

    Ace filmmaker Karan Johar ’s second directorial Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham is undoubtedly one of the most iconic films of the Hindi film industry. Starring a stellar cast of popular actors such as Shah Rukh Khan , Amitabh Bachchan , Kajol , Kareena Kapoor Khan, Hrithik Roshan and Jaya Bachchan, the family drama not only won hearts but also bagged 5 Filmfare Awards that year, and went on to emerge as the highest-grossing Indian film outside of India back then. It was majorly shot in London and Egypt.

    Well during a segment of Social Media Star With Janice, KJo remembered an embarrassing behind the scenes incident that occurred when he was shooting a song in Farafra, Egypt. He shared, “The sequence in Suraj Hua Maddham, where Kajol is in a green saree, it was 500 kilometers of just limestone statues, the most beautiful location I think I’ve ever seen.” The filmmaker recalled, “I was really having a bad time because I was getting the loosies. We were shooting and there were no van in those days. I literally went behind the biggest limestone statue.”

    KJo thought that the statue, which was huge, would cover him. However, when he turned around he saw a group of around 20 people walking towards him. They were from a Hollywood crew. When they saw the filmmaker, they were about to take out their cameras but Karan stopped them by saying ‘Please, I am the director of this movie, have some respect’.

    We honestly can’t believe this story managed to be a secret for so many years! It is definitely brave of Karan to share an incident like this with fans. We wonder how the star cast reacted when they found out.
