Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge is a path-breaking film in Bollywood. It has a special place in the history of Indian cinema as it is the longest running film of Bollywood. It ran for more than 20 years uninterrupted at the iconic Maratha Mandir cinema hall.
Raj and Simran are still the ideal lovers for a lot of the people, and DDLJ is simply the most-loved romantic movie of Bollywood. But, like they say, even the best things have flaws, don¡¯t they? A lot of people have often pointed out how silly the iconic train scene in DDLJ was, and looks like Kajol kind of agrees with that.

The iconic scene that starts with Amrish Puri¡¯s popular dialogue ¡°Ja Simran Ja, Jee Le Apni Zindagi,¡± wasn¡¯t easy, says Kajol.
¡°Honestly, we were worried about the heat and getting cranky, my hair was frizzling out, the train wasn¡¯t moving at the right speed that it should have. We couldn¡¯t do retakes because the train had to go ahead and come back which would take some 20 minutes. It was a mess. Actually, Raj should have just pulled the chain instead of making me run like a crazy person. In hindsight, of course, it¡¯s become an iconic scene but I can¡¯t take any credit for it. It¡¯s all Adi (director Aditya Chopra),¡± she told Huffington Post in an interview.

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge released on Oct 19, 1995, but is one of the most successful movies of all times that grossed millions in India as well as abroad.
