Siddharth Anand has revealed that Anjaana Anjaani was inspired by the TV comedy Friends.
The director also hopes that the audience wants to get to know the characters from his new film.
"I remember when I watched Friends, I wanted to meet and know every character," Anand told Real Bollywood. "That's how I want audiences to feel about Ranbir (Kapoor) and Priyanka (Chopra) in Anjaana Anjaani.
"We shot in the iconic New York. We had the skating rink (in Central Park) shut down for our shoot for three days. Then we shot with Ranbir and Priyanka in NY's Café Lalo, where Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks met in You've Got Mail.”
