For Karan Johar, however, it is a sign of good luck. He believes that if one of his actors trips and falls during the making of the film, then it will be a hit at the box-office. Those in the know say that deep within his heart he hopes (and perhaps silently prays) that one of his stars accidentally tripsu00a0-- perhaps in the maze of wires criss-crossing the sets or on one of the props. Because once the actor falls, the producer-director is convinced that his film will be a winner!

Adds the source, "Basically Karan is not into superstitious beliefs. He would never want any such incidents to happen. But it has become a habit withu00a0 him. From his first film Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, his heroines have somewhere or the other have managed to tumble on the sets. He regards this as a sign that Lady Luck will now smile at the project."
Says Karan, "It is a Dharma Production joke. Kajol has fallen in all my films. In fact, we were towards the last days of the shoot and she had not tripped. Mickey Contractor even told meu00a0-- now what? We just had a few days of shoot left with Kajol when in a scene she had climb down a portico. There was just one step but she missed itu00a0-- and fell. The entire unit burst out laughing. If she had not fallen, I would have been real worried."
