Kajol and Aamir Khan were reunited after 9 years for 'Fanaa'. The 2006 release will always be remembered for its unique love story, music, and dialogues
Aamir Khan and Kajol in Fanaa
Aamir Khan and Kajol-starrer 'Fanaa' completes 17 years of release today. Directed by Kunal Kohli, 'Fanaa' followed the story of Rehan played by Aamir Khan, a tour guide who meets Zooni played by Kajol, a blind Kashmiri woman. She rejects the advice of her friends to ignore Rehan since she is determined to live independently. As he shows her how to live life to the fullest, he also hides a secret that could endanger both of them.
On the special occasion, Kajol took to her social media handle to celebrate the film and also shared an interesting trivia around the film. "One of my oh so many “comebacks” but Zooni will always remain special to me simply because I just had to be me without my glasses. #Nerds rock! And since you guys loved my memories let me give you some more..," she wrote while sharing a teaser of the film.

"Poland was -27 degrees centigrade on the first day of shoot and I was wearing a thin chiffon salwar kameez on a frozen lake with the wind chill factor aside… #AamirKhan on the other hand had bought himself a nice thick jacket from the local market just for the shoot. So his face did not have the natural pain that was there on my frozen face," she wrote speaking about the struggle she had to go through to get the perfect shot.
"And the cherry on top of the whole scenario was that the whole song was scrapped and RESHOT when we got back to Mumbai!! Can we all just salute women and heroines all over the world who do these things and much worse just to look good," she added saluting women who shoot in extreme conditions ad in attires not suitable to the weather.
