Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge was not a new story, it was the oldest story in the world, it was the most 'Tapori' story in the world. These are the words that Aditya Chopra himself used to describe what he was making. 'Tapori' is possibly the most charming essence to hook the audiences and that's why this romance went on to become a classic.
The lead pair, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, were already stars with the success of Baazigar. And Khan already was the Yash Chopra star after the cult of Darr. With DDLJ, as fondly abbreviated, he found himself to be the new romantic hero of Hindi Cinema. He was rechristened as Raj, the ultimate charmer of the celluloid. And every girl aspired to have a story like Simran, breaking free from patriarchy and embracing independence and discovery.
