"You based Rocky Aur Rani on my marriage, apparently," Khanna quipped, as per a report by Indian Express. "That's what everyone is saying. Is that true? How much can you leech off me?"

Johar promptly refuted the claim, stating that the film was not inspired by Khanna's personal life. "No, it was just two people from different schools of thought coming together," he explained. "That doesn't mean it's your marriage, Tina. Everything is not about you."

It is worth mentioning here that earlier, KJo admitted that he did borrow a few things from the relationship that Twinkle Khanna shares with Akshay Kumar. In an interview with Mid-Day, this year in September, he was quoted saying, “Maybe subconsciously (I got inspired). They have a tremendous friendship in their marriage,” by the portal.

The 51-year-old filmmaker had further said, “I've had dinners with them, meals with them, hung out with them. And there's a terrific kind of comfort in their camaraderie. He finds her hilarious, she finds him hilarious, for different reasons.”

Coming to the professional front, reportedly, Akshay has started shooting for his next collaboration with Karan Johar’s production banner. The upcoming flick will also star R Madhavan and Ananya Panday. It is said to be a biopic on the life of C Sankaran Nair, a lawyer and former President of the Indian National Congress.
