And the legendary film run comes to an end!

That the US President on his recent trip to India, picked a dialogue from one film among the countless other available iconic films should establish the kind of traction a film like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge received even among the iconic films.

One of the biggest achievements of this iconic film is the continuous run of the film in Mumbai’s Maratha Mandir. The film has run for over 1000 weeks in that theater breaking the previous longest running record of another all time iconic film Sholey. This mind-blowing and unheard of before run is finally coming to an end today. It has completed a total of 1009 weeks record, biggest running record ever in the history of cinema in any film industry.

DDLJ is a classic love story that marked the debut of Adithya Chopra, son of legendary director Yash Chopra. The film made the actors Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol a household name worldwide.
