In an interview with The Week, Karan Johar said that if he could remake 'Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna', he would like to correct it.

In the interview, Karan was asked if he?should have produced a film differently, he said, “It is a tough question because I will hurt the person who made it. There are films that were emotional decisions. The only film I wish we had packaged differently was Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna. I tried to bring commercial elements like big song sets and massive stars, but it is an intimate film. If I could make this film again, I will correct it.”

He added, ''People said I endorsed infidelity through Kabhi Alvida Naa Kehna, but I said you can’t endorse something that’s already sold out''.

This is not the first time Karan expressed his regrets about the film. Earlier, at a?press event in 2016, while speaking about it, KJo said, "I think it's a flawed film. And I think the mistakes in that film are entirely mine. I think I tried to do two things; I tried to do something fresh, interesting, and ground-breaking, but halfway through I also got scared. So just like my sun sign, which is Gemini, I became two people. And I think I should've just been one person, with one solid conviction.''

On the work front, in 2023, Karan donned the director's hat after a hiatus. He helmed 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' which stars Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt in lead roles. Currently, he is hosting 'Koffee With Karan 8'.?
