Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge
celebrated
on
Mumbai's
Marath
Mandir's
screen,
an
iconic
blockbuster
film
that
has
been
running
in
theatre
for
over
19
years.
Never
has
any
film
been
shown
in
any
theatres
for
this
long
time
and
turns
out
the
owners
of
Marath
Mandir
have
no
plans
of
removing
the
Dilwale
Dulhania
Le
Jayenge
movie
from
there
as
well.
The
film
was
debut-directed
by
Aditya
Chopra
and
released
on
Oct
20,
1995
starring
Shahrukh
Khan
and
Kajol
in
lead
roles.
The
film
had
it
all,
love,
action,
melodrama,
romance,
comedy,
thrills,
songs
and
dance.
Some
of
the
iconic
scenes
from
the
movie
are
still
copied
in
modern
Bollywood
films.
DDLJ
had
a
very
simple
story,
there
was
a
fun
loving
London-based
Punjabi
boy
Raj
who
coincidentally
meets
an
Indian
simpleton
Simran
(Kajol)
during
an
European
holiday.
Love
blossoms
between
the
two,
but
winning
over
the
girl's
conservative
family
was
not
a
cakewalk
for
the
hero,
who
then
after
a
lot
of
hard-work
and
fight
scenes
managed
to
take
his
bride
with
him.
Actors
like
Kareena
Kapoor
are
such
fans
of
the
film
that
they
themselves
have
watched
it
over
10
times.
Even
today
filmmakers
seeks
inspiration
from
this
movie,
like
Humpty
Sharma
Ki
Dulhania
which
had
Varun
Dhawan
and
Alia
Bhatt
in
the
lead
roles.
While
many
films
can
be
made
seeking
inspiration
from
this
movie,
it
is
extremely
hard
to
be
remaking
such
a
classic,
cult
movie.
Some
classics
like
DDLJ
should
never
be
remade,
a
sequel
sounds
interesting
but
no
remakes
at
any
cost.
Not
just
DDLJ,
several
iconic
films
are
just
so
perfectly
made
that
there
is
no
need
for
them
to
be
remade.
They
can
not
make
a
better
movie
and
so
should
rather
stay
away
from
even
trying
to
remake
it.
Check
out
10
such
iconic
Bollywood

should

one
