The historic blockbuster has etched its rightful place as the film with the biggest pop culture impact for India, Indians and South Asians across the world.

For 30 years, DDLJ's iconic onscreen pair Raj and Simran is synonymous to love in the country! SRK & Kajol celebrate the release anniversary saying they can never forget how people fell in love after watching DDLJ!

Shah Rukh Khan says, “It doesn't feel like it’s been 30 years since Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge released. It feels like it happened yesterday because ‘bade bade deshon mein aisi choti choti baatein hoti rehti hain....’ but it still feels unbelievable. I'm truly grateful for all the love that I have received from people from across the world for playing Raj - nobody could have foreseen the kind of place the film made in the hearts of people around the world and I will never forget the moment when everyone started to come...see the film and fall in love.”

He adds, “The impact this film has had on the hearts of people worldwide is unprecedented and so many couples meet me and say we got married or fell in love...after watching this film. I also feel that it has had such a happy effect on the pop culture of India and South Asians.”
