In 1993, Shah Rukh Khan left everyone terrified with his negative performance in Abbas-Mustan's Baazigar. The movie also marked the debut of Shilpa Shetty in Bollywood, and it also gave us our very own iconic couple Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. The story revolved around a boy who wanted to take revenge on the person who was responsible for his father’s death.

Baazigar was a complete package of drama, crime, thriller, romance and little bit of comedy. The music of the film was as good as the riveting story. The director of the movie Abbas Mustan said to a publication that it was a huge compliment for the team as the film is still loved by all, and it also marked the first film where SRK and Kajol was a pair but it wasn’t a love story.

The film at that time was compared to the Hollywood movie A Kiss Before Dyin, to which, the director said that the film was very different from the Hollywood one, except for one scene where the actor throws a lady down the terrace and in a similar way SRK threw Shilpa Shetty’s character down the terrace. He also said that the Hollywood film didn’t focus on the mother-son bond.

On SRK’s performance, the director said that he was born a star and a very talented actor, for example, “when we were shooting the scene where he is finding the photo in the suitcase, we had suggested he keep it in the pocket but it was his idea to tear and put it in his mouth. There were things which he did spontaneously.”

Well, Kajol and SRK were not the original choice for the movie, SRK’s role was first offered to Salman Khan and he suggested them to add the emotional mother angle to it, and once they added that to the script, they didn’t go back to Salman but offered the movie to SRK which proved to be a turning point in his career. The same goes with Kajol, who was not the original choice for the movie, as the director first wanted to sign Juhi Chawla, but since the pair had already done a movie together they wanted a fresh pairing, and thus Kajol was then signed for the movie.

And today the movie completes 25 years since it released. The songs and the dialogues of this movie are still remembered by the fans.

SRK’s association with Yash Chopra began with the movie Dilwale Dhulania Le Jayenge, and then he began to work with the ace director in many more movies. Films like Darr, Dil Toh Pagal Hai made him the superstar that he is. Shah Rukh Khan has always considered Yash Chopra to be like a father figure. When Yash Chopra passed away, SRK was shattered and had said that he lost his father once again.

If you are a big fan of romantic films, we are sure you must have not missed this love saga called Veer Zaara. It’s a love story of two individuals from India and Pakistan who meet each other and fall in love. Shah Rukh Khan and Preity Zinta gave a perfect meaning to the cinematic vision of Yash Chopra. It went out to be one of the biggest blockbusters of the year 2004 and today the movie has completed 14 years of its release.

Veer Zaara stars Preity Zinta, Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji in lead roles. Preity took to her Instagram profile and shared a video about the same. She captioned it saying that she is remembering Yash Chopra and she feels very fortunate and blessed to be a part of this movie. She also mentioned that she regrets that no one loves like this anymore. She thanked Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji and the entire team for the unforgettable experience and memories.
