Ghai said: "It's nostalgic for all of us to come together and to know that the craze of the movie is still so warm between the audience is really overwhelming."
Asked about his memories of the film, he said: "It was a tough job convincing both the actors. It took me 2 months to convince Simi ji and few weeks to convince Rishi sahab. It was a tough job as my image was that of an action film director and Karz was a musical screenplay."
Rishi revealed that he was very apprehensive about picturising one song which went to become one of the biggest chart-busters.
"When the song Dard-e-Dil was being shot, I was busy finding a choreographer on the set. Subhash Ghai came and said he will choreograph the song. Initially that made me little worried as he was a director of an action film and this was a love song. But Subhashji assured me that he will re-shoot the song if i don't like it.
"Now I am pleased to tell you that the final version you see in the film was picturised by Subhash Ghai, without any choreographers," he revealed.
