KJo expressed his gratitude to the veteran lyrics and screenwriter Javed Akhtar, singer Sonu Nigam and the composers Shankar, Ehsaan and Loy. He wrote in the caption, “A song in the @dharmamovies repertoire that will always be so personal to me for so many reasons. Will always be eternally grateful to Javed sahab SEL and Sonu for giving us this immortal melody.”

He further mentioned: “A song that is about hope… love… and loss… As much a song for a broken heart as it is for hopeful romance. The inherent quality of this song to transcend a gamut of emotions makes it the ‘go to’ audio soothing support. Emotions are universal and here are some moments from our movies that hopefully have struck a chord.”

Recently, Karan made headlines after he expressed his displeasure on the level of mimicry that is being done in reality shows. He shared a cryptic post in the story section of Instagram. ‘I was sitting with my mother watching television. I saw a reality comedy show promo, which airs on a so-called respectable channel. A comic artist is doing a very bad mimicry of me. I can expect this from trolls or those people who say anything by hiding their face or name. But when those people are from their own industry, they make fun of you. That too of a person who has been a part of the industry for more than 25 years. Your doing like this shows how we are living in these times. Now it doesn’t make me angry, but makes me sad,’ read Karan’s Instagram Stories.
