Today, films rarely achieve a successful 100 days’ running at the theatres with a few execptions. But the mid 90’s Yash Raj release, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge has earned a reputation for long runs at many theatres across the world. The film which became one of the biggest Bollywood releases in the overseas market, entered 12th year at the theatres.
The film that immortalised the romantic pair of Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, has run succesfully for the past 486 weeks at the Maratha Mandir theatre in Central Mumbai. The film has continued its showing at the theatres on popular demand.
The information came from the Kanakia Cinemax India’s head, Rakesh B. The film has collected 11,60,25,031 in the past 485 days. The film is one of the rare ones which has achieved such a landmark.
