Shah Rukh Khan’s iconic film ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ remains etched in the memories of millennials and Gen Zers who fondly recall lazy Sundays spent engrossed in reruns of this Bollywood classic romance. However, one individual is challenging everything we thought we knew about the film and its storyline.
A social media user, Karan Mirchandani took to Instagram to share his unique perspective on the movie and expound on why he believes that ‘Kuch Kuch Hota Hai’ is, in fact, a murder mystery. According to Karan, this beloved Yash Raj classic transcends its outward appearance as a “high school romance” and delves into the realm of an intriguing unsolved crime.
Why Anjali & Rahul Were The Mastermind Murderers In The Film? Netizen Explains
Karan presents his theory, scrutinizing the movie’s premise with a suspicious lens. He highlights, “There’s a girl who gets eight letters from her mother, who’s mysteriously died and mysteriously written these eight letters, convincing her daughter that her husband needs to get together with his high school lover.”
Delving deeper, Karan questions the true intentions behind these letters, contemplating whether the little girl’s mother actually wrote them or if someone fabricated the illusion. According to Karan, Rahul and Anjali, the main characters, emerge as the masterminds behind this plan.
Karan further adds how Rahul and Anjali, both from humble backgrounds, crossed paths with Tina during their high school years. Being from a wealthy family, Tina becomes the centerpiece of their master plan. Karan ponders whether Rahul and Anjali orchestrated a scenario where Rahul would marry Tina, who would subsequently meet an untimely demise, leaving Rahul as the beneficiary of Tina’s fortune.
To execute their plan fully, Rahul would then rekindle his relationship with Anjali, allowing them to enjoy the result of their successful plan. However, their scheme faces an unexpected twist when Tina and Rahul have a child. Karan wonders if this unexpected development led the duo to orchestrate an elaborate fake romance to ensure Anjali’s [the daughter] compliance with their plan.
The internet community was captivated by this intriguing explanation, with many embracing the idea of reclassifying the film’s genre. Some even contributed to the murder mystery narrative, constructing conspiracy theories in support of Karan’s interpretation.
