Kuch Kuch Hota Hai released on October 16, 1998. The film was centered around Rahul (Shah Rukh Khan), Anjali (Kajol) and Tina (Rani Mukerji).

She is heartbroken with Rahul and Tina's closeness. Years later, Tina passes away during childbirth but wants their daughter to reunite Rahul and Anjali. The latter undergoes a major transformation and succumbs to conventional beauty standards.
