Two decades since the release of Sooraj Barjatya's hit family drama "Hum Aapke Hain Koun..!", Karan Johar says it was the movie which made him decide he wanted to be a filmmaker.

"#20YearsOfHAHK ....the movie that made me want to make movies!!!! @MadhuriDixit @BeingSalmanKhan and the man himself #SoorajBarjatya," Karan tweeted Tuesday.

The film, about love and family, starred Salman Khan and Madhuri Dixit in lead roles.

Only SRK signed for next film: Rohit Shetty

Filmmaker Rohit Shetty finds it amusing to know the various rumours doing the rounds about his next project. He says so far he has only signed Shah Rukh Khan for the new film.

"There are so many films I am doing, according to reports in the media. Some are saying that I am doing a remake of 'Angoor', some are saying it is 'Hum' and now you are saying it is 'Chalti Ka Naam Gaadi'. And there is also a 'Punjab Express'.

"So as per the reports, I am doing as many as nine films with Shah Rukh. I'd like to put all rumours to rest and say that only Shah Rukh has confirmed for my next film. No one else has been roped in as of now. The pre-production for the film has already started and it will go on floors next year," Shetty said here.

The "Chennai Express" director is currently awaiting the release of "Singham Returns" on Independence Day Aug 15.
