Twelve years ago DDLJ saw a phenomenal run at the box-office and mammoth success. And as on 20th April 2007, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge is continuing it's dream run at the box office and is still able to sustain a full house. When movies these days are barely running for 3-4 weeks, DDLJ has outshone them all by running nonstop for 600 weeks at Maratha Mandir
since it's release 12 years ago.
"Yash Raj is planning something specialto mark this occasion. The film has a collection of above 60 per cent from Monday to Wednesday and 100 per cent on weekends," says Executive Director of Maratha Mandir, Manoj Desai. The collections are surely mind boggling.
In 2001, DDLJ broke the continuous-exhibition record established by another classic, Ramesh Sippy's Sholay, that ran for five years from 1975-80 at Minerva theatre.
The most romantic of all the films Yash Raj Films has ever produced, the best of Aditya Chopra, Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge has surely stolen and still continues to steal millions of hearts of it's audience all over the world.
