Main Hoon Na marked Farah Khan’s directorial debut. It went on to become a massive box office success. Coming back to

According to these reports, Farah Khan had allegedly cracked an interesting double-role concept for the superstar, featuring two sharply contrasting characters. Adding further fuel to the fire was the claim that the core story idea had originated from Shah Rukh Khan himself, with writer Aakash Kaushik working on developing the screenplay.
