Did you know Javed Akhtar left Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, Rani Mukerji-led Kuch Kuch Hota Hai after writing its first song? Here’s why
Javed Akhtar, a highly respected screenwriter in Bollywood, has been well-known since the 1970s. Recently, he shared that he views the 1980s as a particularly challenging period for Hindi cinema because numerous songs with suggestive meanings were penned during this time. Consequently, he wrote just one song for Karan Johar’s Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, which also happened to be the movie’s title. However, due to his ethical beliefs, he shied away from composing nonsensical or double-entendre lyrics during this era. Regrettably, he now wishes he had contributed to that film as well.
