Legacy Of HAHK

Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! is credited as being a defining moment in the box office history of Hindi cinema, and the beginning of a revolution in the film distribution system in India.[9][12] It was originally released in only a small number of theatres that agreed to upgrade their facilities. Due to widespread demand for the film after release, many other theatres upgraded in order to get the film. As a result ticket prices were raised, and more people came back to theatres who had been lost to television.[8][12] Box Office India said, "Not only did Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! smash all records but took business for films released afterwards to another level. To put into perspective how business changed ... before Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! an all India share of 10 crore for a big film was regarded as blockbuster business but after Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! the blockbuster business figure went to 20 crore."[12]

Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! influenced many Hindi films that followed. Avinash Ramchandani observed that the film was released at a time when most Hindi films contained violent plots. He wrote, "This movie changed it all. Since then we have had movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Akele Hum Akele Tum which have continued the trend towards non-violent love stories.[14] Filmmaker Karan Johar named it as the one film that changed his life. He said, "After seeing Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! I realized Indian cinema is about values, tradition, subtlety, romance. There is so much soul in it. After watching this film I got the answers to all the questions I had in my mind. I decided to go ahead and be a filmmaker only after watching this film."[25] According to Anees Bazmee, his film Ready, was influenced by Barjatya films like Hum Aapke Hain Koun..! and Hum Saath-Saath Hain.[26]

This film belongs to only a small collection of films, including Kismet (1943), Mother India (1957), Mughal-e-Azam (1960) and Sholay (1975), which are repeatedly watched throughout India and are viewed as definitive Hindi films with cultural significance.[27]

I was wondering why this great actress doesn't have any work after the superhit success of Gadar 2. She has faded away again. I am so confused....
