Tracing the Classic Lineage
Raj Kapoor and Nargis’ Chori Chori was itself an Indian adaptation of the 1934 Hollywood film 'It Happened One Night'. Years later, Aamir Khan and Pooja Bhatt recreated its essence in the 1991 hit Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahi, a modern remake of Chori Chori. The potential Ranbir-Deepika film could be the latest generation’s take on this cherished template.
