In a viral twist to one of Bollywood’s most heartbreaking love stories, AI has gifted fans a new ending to Raanjhanaa — one where Kundan doesn’t die.
The alternate version, circulated across social platforms, uses AI editing tools to reimagine the film's climax, showing Kundan recovering and reuniting with Zoya — sparking an emotional wave of reactions online.
Original vs AI: A Tale of Two Endings
In the original 2013 Anand L. Rai-directed film, Kundan (played by Dhanush) dies a painful, lonely death, rejected by the love of his life, Zoya (Sonam Kapoor). The tragic climax left fans heartbroken for years.
But now, AI is allowing fans to imagine what could’ve been.
Internet Reactions Pour In:
“I cried again — but this time with hope. My Kundan is alive.”
— @BollywoodSoul
“This should’ve been the real ending. Dhanush’s Kundan deserved peace.”
— @ZoyaForever
The hashtag #KundanLives trended on X (formerly Twitter) for several hours.
The Role of AI in Cinema Nostalgia
With AI tools becoming more accessible, fans are using them to re-edit iconic movie endings, giving their beloved characters alternate fates. Similar fan-made endings have appeared for Kal Ho Naa Ho and Tumbbad recently.
Critics warn of “narrative dilution,” but others say it’s simply a new form of emotional fan expression.
