When you think of love and romance in Bollywood, one name that immediately comes to mind is Imran Khan. He's often hailed as the "King of Rom-coms", and rightfully so, with a slew of beloved films like Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na and Ek Main Aur Ekk Tu to his credit. Recently, he dropped a hint about a Bollywood comeback, sending his fans into a frenzy of excitement.
But that's not all. Imran Khan has been treating his fans to a delightful trip down memory lane by sharing nostalgic throwbacks from his iconic films. His latest throwback took us back to the cult classic, I Hate Luv Storys, a film that's revered as one of the finest rom-coms in Bollywood history.
In I Hate Luv Storys, Imran Khan portrayed the character of Jai, a man whose struggle with love resonated with audiences around the globe. Imran shared stills from the movie on his Instagram and took a moment to reflect on the film's quirky title. He humorously addressed the unique spelling of the title, which, in his words, "always made me feel like I was wearing my shoes on the wrong feet." He revealed that the unconventional spelling was a nod to numerology, a touch of mysticism he didn't personally subscribe to but couldn't help but acknowledge given the film's enduring popularity.
Imran delved into the behind-the-scenes magic of creating "I Hate Luv Storys." He expressed how he instantly clicked with director Punit Malhotra, leading to a fantastic working relationship. The film's energy was palpable, with a storyline set in the world of cinema, and this added a special energy to everyone's behaviour. Imran reminisced about the scenes that were inspired by real-life moments in the movie business, from the director who disciplined his assistant directors like a schoolteacher to the star who needed massive cue cards for his lines.
