Yesterday, October 16, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai turned 26. The Karan Johar directorial debut, released in 1998, starred Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol and Rani Mukerji. The cult classic is known to be one of the most romantic movies of the last few decades, and is still known for its songs, story, dance and music. Apart from the three leads, the movie also starred Sana Saeed as a child actor, who played Shah Rukh Khan's daughter in the movie.
Earlier this morning, Sana took to her IG handle to share some stills of the movie, and wrote, "Every year I get a sweet little reminder of some of the most beautiful memories I got to create as a very tiny but very lucky hooman ��
I am absolutely thrilled to have gotten the opportunity to work with simply The Best!!!! ♥️

Yesterday, to commemorate this special milestone, Johar took to Instagram, sharing a nostalgic video filled with behind-the-scenes moments that captured the essence of the film.
He reminisced about the charm of the '90s with a playful caption: "Of cool neck chains, neon shirts, pink headbands, summer camp with only dancing involved, wishing on toota taaras, cheating in basketball, dosti that turns into pyaar and characters that live through time and beyond!!"
He expressed gratitude for the incredible cast and crew, reflecting on the joy of maintaining that same spirit 26 years later.
'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai', released in 1998, was not just a film; it was a cultural phenomenon.
With its catchy music, memorable dialogues, and iconic fashion, it influenced trends, from the gifting of friendship bands on Friendship Day to SRK's stylish accessories and Anjali's iconic bob-cut.
The film's success paved the way for its re-release last year, celebrating 25 years of the beloved trio.
During the screening, Johar, Khan, and Mukerji surprised fans by making a special appearance at a theatre, creating a whirlwind of excitement on social media.
Karan Johar praised Shah Rukh Khan, calling him the "Emperor of entertainment" and the "King of romance," emphasizing the impact Khan had on his career.
