Karan Johar took merely nine days to write the script of Ae Dil Hai Mushkil'

Mumbai: Karan Johar’s last full-fledged directorial, ‘Student of the Year’ released in 2012 and his upcoming film ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ releases after a gap of four years. This might make people think that the filmmaker was working on the film for a considerable amount of time, especially on the script, which takes several filmmakers months or even years.

However, Karan didn’t have to work too hard on the script and finished writing the script in merely nine days while he was in New York. “I just took nine days to write the film. I was in New York and while walking around the streets, I was thinking about the pain a person goes through when one-sided love happens. I have gone through that pain. The story of ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ talks about this side of a love story,” Karan said while addressing media at the JIO MAMI Film Festival.

Ranbir Kapoor is seen delivering lines about ‘one-sided love’ in the trailer and the the film traces his relationship Anushka Sharma. Amid their story, Ranbir’s moments with Aishwarya Rai Bachchan and Anushka’s with Fawad Khan forms the plot of the film.

‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’, after facing uncertainty over its release due to controversy surrounding a Pakistani actor is finally all set to release on 28 October.
