The REAL thing is ADJUSTED net and NOT the difference in inflation year by year or by decades.

HAHK is the BIGGEST HINDI HIT EVER.

adjusted net of Sholay, Bahubaali(all format), Mother India and Mughal-E-Azam is more than that of HAHK.

Since adjusted net is basically footfalls/tickets sold multiplied by current average ticket price rate.

So these movies which sold over 10 crores tickets will obviously be bigger hits than HANK which sold around 7.5 crores tickets(all format).

^ya only in the movies only in the movies. Lol! The sourpuss faces of parents I still see of my cousins/friends even after many years just doesn't inspire. Lol. The hope of course is that those who grew up seeing DDLJ will have learnt the lesson!

I have seen real-life stories that are similar. My cousin, in India, is a Ph.D. in physics. All of our relatives were putting pressure on her to marry someone with a 12th-grade education. I think another girl from our family had married into that family and was very happy. Our family wanted to return the favor and keep good relations with them. There is nothing wrong with being less educated if you can support yourself well and have other talents. But my cousin was madly in love with an engineer, of a different religion. Again this happened in 2010 or so and she was an educated independent woman. She was just nodding around doing what the family asked her to. Behaving a lot like Simran actually. My dad and aunt went from the U.S. to India. They pulled her aside and asked her what she wanted. She told them if they wanted to know what is in her heart that she wanted to marry the other engineer. It took them a while to convince her parents but eventually, she married the person she loved with the consent of her parents. Many of the relatives were upset. There were a few people at the wedding when it occurred.

Me Me Me. I prefer KKHH to DDLJ.

SRK-Kajol jodi is also hugely overrated. I prefer SRK with Juhi and Rani.

Used to like it once. But sony max

I dont think DDLJ is overrated. KKHH is definitely overrated though.

Honestly, HAHK was far superior and the romance in it doesn't feel cringy or outdated even now. DDLJ clicked at the time because it brought something fresh, had a great pair etc but it has aged terribly!
