If there is one film that defines the ‘New Age Bollywood’ its DDLJ. No other film in the last three decades has had a greater impact on the audience and the industry itself than this quintessential Bollywood romance. Bollywood’s ‘longest running film ever’ sold dreams of romance to a young nation, at a time when its people were looking for a liberating narrative of love. The desire of Simran (Kajol) to set herself free from shackles and the charming flamboyance of a bold Raj (Shahrukh Khan), set new standards for the Indian youth, and urged them to dream and fall in love.
Director – Aditya Chopra
