Now in its tenth straight year running in Indian theatres, it has surpassed even 1975’s Sholay’s record-breaking five-year run and with cinema halls continuing to fill up with DDLJ fans waiting to see the film for the umpteenth time, it looks likely to stick around for quite a while. Written and directed by the debuting Aditya Chopra (son of legendary Bollywood filmmaker Yash Chopra) and starring the popular on-screen couple of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (‘Braveheart Will Win The Bride’) is one of the most loveable and phenomenally successful Hindi musicals ever made. Refusing Simran’s plea to elope in secret, Raj instead offers to hatch a plan to win her family over and marry his bride honestly.

Raj decides to follow them and reunites with Simram outside her Punjabi village, who tells him that her wedding preparations are already in full swing. But it’s too late – Raj finds an empty house and discovers they have already left for India. Raj is shocked when Simran reveals to him that she is engaged to be married to a man she has never met back in Punjab and, after eventually making their way home to England, Raj decides to pay Simran and her family a visit to confess his love for her. In France, after missing a train to Zurich and getting separated from their companions, Raj and Simram eventually get closer and begin to subconsciously develop feelings for each other. Deciding to tour Europe with friends before she and her family move to India for her arranged marriage to her father’s friend’s son, Simran is repulsed by Raj’s laddish behaviour upon meeting him. Joining him on the train journey from London is Simran, the reserved-yet-quirky daughter of strict Punjabi shopkeeper Chaudhry Baldev Singh (Amrish Puri) and his wife Lajwanti (Farida Jalal). The only son of liberal, wealthy businessman Dharamvir Malhotra (Anupam Kher), Raj is a care-free slacker who has just failed his exams and sets off with his pals for a tour of Europe at the encouragement of his father who promises him a job at his office when he returns. Raj Malhotra (Shah Rukh Khan) and Simran Singh (Kajol) are two British NRIs (non-resident Indians) living in London. Stephen Horne has reviewed Yash Raj Films’ two-disc DVD set of the 1995 film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, a classic Bollywood romantic comedy starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol that recently celebrated its 500th week in a row playing in Indian cinemas.
