DYK, Aditya Chopra ‘Threatened’ Karan Johar Into Keeping His And Rani Mukerji’s Wedding A Secret? Filmmaker Reveals, “I Was So Stressed, Petrified”

For years, Rani Mukerji and Aditya Chopra’s wedding has remained one of Bollywood’s best-kept secrets. When the couple tied the knot away from the spotlight, they ensured that the ceremony stayed strictly private, with only a small circle of trusted friends and family in attendance. At a grand celebration marking Rani Mukerji’s remarkable 30-year journey in the entertainment industry, the actress shared the stage with longtime friend and filmmaker Karan Johar, reflecting on their decades-long bond, memorable collaborations, and personal milestones.

Karan Johar On Aditya Chopra-Rani Mukerji’s Wedding

During the candid conversation, Karan surprised everyone by recalling a funny yet nerve-wracking anecdote involving Aditya Chopra’s strict warning about keeping the wedding under wraps. Ending the introduction on a playful note, Karan hinted that the memory still makes him nervous, leaving the audience eager to hear more.

As Karan began narrating the incident, he revealed that he was among the very few people invited to the ceremony. He said that he still remembers how Aditya looked straight at him and made it clear that if any wedding information leaked, the responsibility would fall solely on him. Recalling that moment, Karan shared, “I remember when you’ll were getting married, I was one of the 18 people at the wedding… if the wedding information leaks, it will be only because of you, because others don’t know anybody else, you’re the only person who has access to the outside world.”

Naturally, the pressure intensified for Karan, especially since he was juggling professional commitments at the same time. He explained that 2 States was releasing the same day, and he suddenly had to disappear from promotional duties, which confused many people around him. Laughing at the memory, he added, “And I will never forget how stressed I was, because 2 States was releasing and I told everyone I had to go out and they thought I was being insensitive. I was so stressed because I was petrified of your husband… I still am.”

Even years later, the fear hasn’t entirely faded. With his trademark humour, Karan confessed that the stress left a lasting impression on him and jokingly admitted that he is still scared of Aditya. The audience erupted in laughter as Rani smiled at the confession, clearly amused by how seriously Aditya had guarded their privacy.

Earlier reports have also quoted Karan recalling how Aditya had half-jokingly, half-seriously “threatened” him that if the news ever leaked, he would personally hold him responsible. The filmmaker has often spoken about Aditya’s discipline and uncompromising approach to privacy, and this anecdote only strengthened that perception.

As Rani Mukerji celebrates three decades of cinematic excellence, moments like these remind audiences that the industry is built not just on films, but on shared histories, loyalty, and unforgettable memories. Karan Johar’s candid revelation added warmth and charm to the celebration — proving that even the biggest stars cherish their most private moments fiercely.
