Originally released in 1995, Karan Arjun is a cult classic that revolves around two brothers, Karan (played by Salman Khan) and Arjun (played by Shah Rukh Khan). The story follows their tragic deaths while protecting their mother, portrayed by Rakhee, from the villain Thakur Sangram Singh. The film captures their journey of reincarnation and eventual return to seek revenge for their untimely demise, culminating in an emotional reunion with their mother.
While Shah Rukh Khan and Salman Khan's performances made the characters unforgettable, Roshan previously revealed an interesting casting history for the film. Initially, Shah Rukh was set to co-star with Ajay Devgn. However, after discussions about character roles, both actors opted out. Roshan then approached Salman Khan and Aamir Khan, both of whom showed interest. Although Aamir was initially unavailable due to scheduling conflicts, Shah Rukh ultimately returned, eager to join the project.
