But, now many know that initially it was Barsaat starring two new comers that had found more takers at the ticket window. And we all know about their respective box office results.
There was a two-week difference in the releases of Barsaat and Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge. Those were the days of silver, golden, diamond and platinum jubilees. Unlike today, at that time, the movies had longer run in theatres. The movie is still playing at Maratha Mandir in Mumbai, 25 years later. Marking the directorial debut of Aditya Chopra, DDLJ, as it was popularly known as, has created several records at the box office and was adjudged an all-time blockbuster. Interestingly, two weeks after Barsaat had released in theatres, on October 20, 1995, Yash Chopra's Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol had opened. The movie, directed by Rajkumar Santoshi and produced by Dharmendra, was a super hit upon its release and its music was chartbuster.
