Twenty years after making people fall in love with his idea of romance in his debut "Kuch Kuch Hota Hai", Karan Johar says the film's much-fancied hero, Rahul was "a bit of a fraud".
The 1998 film was a roaring commercial blockbuster and the three central characters - Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan), Anjali (Kajol) and Tina (Rani Mukherji) are popular even today.
The dialogues from "Pyar dosti hai" to "Kuch kuch hota hai Rahul, tum nahi samjhoge" are still etched in fans' minds.
When asked how would Rahul and Anjali be today two decades later, Karan said, "Rahul was a bit of a fraud anyway. He used to say 'we love once, marry once' but did it twice. In my head I hope the marriage works, but it must have been a tough marriage.
"I hope the little Anjali (Sana Saeed) isn't messed up, because at eight she was loaded with so much information."
"And he said, 'As long as you know it! I am happy that you do.' I removed that scene."
