Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol starrer 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' is one of the most iconic and loved films we have in Bollywood. The film is what made SRK the most romantic superstars of all time. However, did you know that he almost wasn't a part of the film?
Yes, you read that right! 'The Romantics' director Smriti Mundhra revealed how Shah Rukh had to be convinced to do a romantic movie. According to her, sometimes we take for granted how these films come together. Hearing about the intentionality of all those decisions was really interesting. From Yash Chopra taking Amitabh Bachchan from 'Deewar' to 'Kabhi Kabhie' to a similar thing happening with Shah Rukh Khan between 'Darr and DDLJ' and later Saif Ali Khan's rise as a multiplex idol. It's interesting because one would have never thought of those influences on peoples careers. There are a lot of things that she found interesting, Smriti told Mid Day.
