Welcome back to A Century Of Stories: India presented by IDFC FIRST Bank!
In this week’s episode, Kunal delves into the timeless Bollywood classic Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ) and its lasting impact on the Indian diaspora. Since its release in 1995, the film has become a cultural touchstone, particularly for Indians living abroad, who connected with its themes of love, tradition, and the challenges of navigating dual identities. The film became the first of its kind to resonate with diaspora audiences, and opened new doors for Bollywood movies to come.
