Shah Rukh Khan starrer 2003 released “Kal Ho Naa Ho” is certainly one of the most loved movies of all times as this romantic comedy not only made people laugh and cry but also gave the important message that whatever you have is today, tomorrow is uncertain so live your life to the fullest in the present moment.
