Dil Chahta Hai starring Aamir Khan, Saif Ali Khan and Akshaye Khanna in the lead roles, was a coming-of-age film that redefined romance and bromance for our generation. We lived Akash, Sameer and Siddharth’s lives with them. Whether it was love, heartbreak, friendship, happiness, sorrow or joy, the film had a perfectly mixed cocktail of all the emotions we could ask for. The movie gave us #FriendshipGoals along with #WanderlustGoals. No matter how many times you watch it, you’ll always end up grooving to Koi Kahe and wiping your tears when Tanhai plays. Today, the cult classic has completed 18 years and this has hit us with a wave of nostalgia.
Yesterday, actress Preity Zinta took to her Instagram to share a video that celebrated the film completing 18 years. She wrote, “जाने क्यू ये फ़िल्म मेरी फ़ेवरेट फ़िल्मों की लिस्ट में है 🤩 Thank you @faroutakhtar @_aamirkhan @farahkhankunder, Saif @akshaye_khanna & the entire cast and crew for making this film such a fun and memorable experience! Loved every bit of it ❤🤗😘❤
