Karan Johar introduces the legendary stars of 'Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani'

The filmmaker shared a new post with fans on his Instagram account and announced that his next directorial will also have three legendary actors of Indian Cinema. Who are they?

Karan Johar returns to the director’s seat after five years. He made ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’ in 2016 and now gears up for a romantic comedy with Ranveer Singh and Alia Bhatt titled ‘Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani’. The announcement has already been made earlier today at 11 am. But Johar, with his fascination for ensembles, has roped in three more actors for his directorial.

These are the giants of Indian Cinema whose collective contribution could be of more than a 100 years. These legends are Dharmendra, Shabana Azmi, and Jaya Bachchan. Dharmendra and Jaya Bachchan have worked together before in films like Guddi, Sholay, and Chupke Chupke. The actress was last seen in Ki and Ka in 2016, and Dharmendra is also gearing up for Apne 2 with his sons and grandson too. Azmi has been impressing everyone with her acting skills even today and Neerja is proof.

Here’s the filmmaker’s post with a voiceover of Singh and Bhatt:

Rocky and Rani are going to redefine your usual love stories to take you on a journey! Meet the rest of the parivaar today at 2pm! [sic]" The man has kept his promise.

On Monday, he had shared an update with fans on Instagram that he would announce his new directorial on Tuesday (July 6). Johar shared a behind-the-scenes video clip of his successful films of the past as a director. "This is the beginning of a new journey & my way back home -- all at once. It's time to go back to my favourite place, it's time to create some eternal love stories from behind the lens. A very special story, truly immersed in the roots of love and family. Announcing my next film tomorrow at 11am, watch this space for more! @DharmaMovies @apoorva1972, [sic]" he wrote as the caption.
