Working with Aditya Chopra was a blast for her. She said that he is very convinced of what he is making and does not do any projects if he isn't fully convinced. She said that this is what sets him apart.

Though they were promised a cool film, they were really hoping the music of DDLJ works since Aditya Chopra had tried something totally different at the time. Kajol said that they were all crossing fingers in the hope that the music does well. They did not know that the film would have this kind of impact on people.
