Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge

Aditya Chopra had first thought of Tom Cruise for the lead role in the film, and the film's original title was 'The Braveheart Will Take the Bride'.

On Yash Chopra's suggestion, Aditya Chopra offered Shah Rukh Khan the role; he had to conduct four separate meetings to convince Khan.

If Shah Rukh Khan had not accepted the role, Aditya Chopra's next preference would have been Saif Ali Khan.

For the role of Kuljit, Armaan Kohli was initially considered, but Parmeet Sethi, who arrived at the auditions in shoes, jeans and a waistcoat, was chosen for the role.

The final title of the film, 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge', was suggested by Kirron Kher.

The famous leather jacket worn by Shah Rukh Khan in the film was bought by Uday Chopra from a Harley-Davidson store in Bakersfield, California for 400 dollars.

Lyricist Anand Bakshi and composer duo Jatin-Lalit got the opportunity to create music for this film thanks to Asha Bhosle's meeting with Yash Chopra.

The first song recorded for the album was 'Mere Khwabon Mein Jo Aaye'; Aditya Chopra had Anand Bakshi rewrite the song's lyrics 24 times.

The yellow mustard fields where the famous song 'Tujhe Dekha To Ye Jaana Sanam' was shot were located in Gurgaon.

In March 2009, the film completed 700 weeks of screening at the Maratha Mandir cinema in Mumbai, breaking the previous record held by Sholay for the longest run of a single film in one cinema.

As of 2019, 20 years after its original release, the film was still being screened at the Maratha Mandir cinema in Mumbai.
