Karan’s
Problem
With
Kareena
Karan
writes,
"My
first
problem
was
with
Kareena.
She
asked
for
too
much
money
and
we
had
some
kind
of
a
fallout
at
that
time.
'Mujhse
Dosti
Karoge!'
had
just
released,
directed
by
Kunal
Kohli.
She
said,
'Aditya
Chopra's
assistant
Kunal
Kohli
has
made
this
flop,
so
Karan
Johar's
assistant,
Nikhil
is
not
to
be
trusted
either'."
Reason
Behind
The
Clash
He
wrote,
"The
weekend
of
'Mujhse
Dosti
Karoge's
release,
I
offered
her
'Kal
Ho
Naa
Ho',
and
she
asked
for
the
same
money
that
Shah
Rukh
Khan
was
getting.
I
said,
'Sorry'."
Karan
Replaced
Kareena
With
Preity
"I
was
very
hurt.
I
told
my
father,
'Leave
that
negotiation
room' and
I
called
her.
She
didn't
take
my
call,
and
I
said,
'We're
not
taking
her.'
And
signed
Preity
Zinta
instead,"
wrote
Karan.
‘It
Was
Very
Idiotic’
"Kareena
and
I
didn't
speak
to
each
other
for
almost
a
year.
For
a
year,
we
looked
through
each
other
at
parties.
It
was
very
idiotic.
She
was
a
kid;
she's
a
decade
younger
than
me," added
Karan.
Here’s
How
They
Patched
Up..
Karan
further
wrote,
"We
were
releasing
'Kal
Ho
Naa
Ho' in
November.
We
had
shot
the
film
in
June,
July,
August
and
in
September
I
had
to
shoot
the
songs,
make
the
promos
and
so
on.
So,
I
had
to
head
back,
while
my
father
continued
the
treatment
in
New
York."
When
Kareena
Called
Up
Karan..
"That
was
the
time
Kareena
Kapoor
called
me.
It
was
August.
We
had
not
spoken
for
nine
months.
She
called
and
said,
'I
heard
about
Yash
uncle.'
She
got
really
emotional
on
the
phone,
and
she
said,
'I
love
you
and
I
am
so
sorry
I
haven't
been
in
touch.
Don't
worry'."
