Well, along with celebrating 25 years of DDLJ, we all need to reminisce another blockbuster hit movie 'Kuch Kuch Hota Hai' as it clocked 22 years. Karan Johar dropped a special video and shared the views of SRK and Kajol a couple of days ago…

Karan also wrote, "#22yearsofKKHH.....memories of a lifetime ...eternally grateful for all the love ❤️".
Kajol
We already know that Kajol has changed her display pic and name as Simran reminiscing one of the biggest blockbusters of her career DDLJ. She told, the Simran character made her feel laugh, cry and feel sad. On this special occasion, Kajol has been interviewed by a media house…Kajol spoke much about her role and movie… "I loved the script! It was brilliant, and Adi (Aditya Chopra, director) was a friend, so I knew he will make a good film. All four of us (me, Shah Rukh Khan, Aditya,Yash Chopra, producer) got together and had a great time making the film."
She added, "They made it a part of their history and legacy. Parents show it to their kids 'oh you remember this film, it's so cool, we should watch it'. I have met people who showed it to their grandkids! We are lucky that this film is a phenomena. We don't think it can ever be repeated. I really thank everyone who has gone and made it the longest running film for so many years."
Finally, Kajol said, "Everything is known about DDLJ already, it isn't a secret honestly. The most memorable time I had during the shoot would be the whole Switzerland trip we took. We all were there and enjoyed everything. God knows how many hours on the bus together, and all of us stayed together at Gstaad, it was an amazing time. We all had a blast together".
Anupam Kher
Even Bollywood's versatile actor Anupam Kher also dropped a few beautiful pics from the movie on his Instagram and celebrated the 25 years of this iconic film sharing a hilarious scene on his Twitter page…

Proud to be part of this iconic film which completes 25 years today. Yes, your love has been a constant!! A big thank you!!

Anita Shroff Adania
Anita essayed the role of Kajol's friend n DDLJ movie… She took us down the memory lane and dropped a few throwback pics on her Instagram. She also reminisced how she was approached for this role…She wrote, "I was in college when Adi and Karan asked me to help them cast my college friends to play Raj and Simrin's friends in the film. This was my introduction to the film industry- a world I knew nothing about at the time.
In the process they convinced me into playing Sheena. I did it for a laugh and a paid holiday to Europe with my bestie, which was a really big deal for a broke student.
I remember reaching Saanen, a small town in Switzerland , fresh off the bus ( ok plane) and seeing Shahrukh in his black suit on a little bridge...and for me I felt that he was there only for me! I'm sure whoever saw him on that bridge felt the same way - that's why he's Shahrukh. Kajol was just Kajol - real, instinctive, full of love (and still gives the tightest hugs ever). You have to remember that these were times when they were no entourages, no managers and mobiles, no social media...film making was much simpler, but extremely passionate. Once we were there, we were cut off from the rest of the world for over a month. We would all live together, eat together, sing together, dance together... we become a real family, under the warm gaze of a legend like Yash uncle (YashChopra).
Adi knew DDLJ from his core, and strove for nothing less than perfection. We all hung out and helped each other in ways only close knit friends and families do. Never having any acting ambitions( thankfully), I'm so glad that I was part of this brilliant film and that I can still call everyone that I worked with a friend. I'm so happy to have been a tiny part of this massive legacy. #DDLJ25
