Josh

Based in a Catholic Christian family, Shahrukh Kahn and Aishwarya Rai Bacchan were a very closely-knit brother-sister duo who depended on each other for every minute decision. Being an elder sibling, the same Shahrukh, who was a notorious brat for the rest of the locality, was the most protective and possessive brother one can imagine. The movie left the siblings with a very integral lesson. Rightly said- possessive yet unbreakable sibling relationship.
