Exactly 20 years ago, on 5th August 1994, a family drama titled ‘Hum Aapke Hain Koun’ released in theatres. The film was slammed by the critics as a ‘wedding video’, but viewers embraced it like no other film in the history of Indian Cinema making it the highest grossing film of all time.
The film earned Rs 137 crore worldwide and contributed immensely in making Bollywood films family friendly. Hum Aapke Hain Koun is also credited for opening up the overseas market for Indian films.
It won five Filmfare Awards as well as the National Film Award for ‘Best Popular Film Providing Wholesome Entertainment’. It made a lasting impact on wedding celebrations in India, which often include songs and games from the film.
Hum Aapke Hain Koun
Ironically, the two main men behind the massive success of Hum Aapke Hain Koun, lead star Salman Khan and director Sooraj Barjatya, are currently shooting for their upcoming film ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’. The man who introduced Salman to the industry 25 years ago with ‘Maine Pyaar Kiya’, will be reuniting with the superstar 15 years after ‘Hum Saath Saath Hain’, in the same year that the actor turns 50!
Sources say, the cast and crew of Hum Aapke Hain Koun have been invited to the sets of ‘Prem Ratan Dhan Payo’ in Karjat to celebrate 20 years of Hum Aapke Hain Koun.
Earlier today, actor Anupam Kher tweeted “Happy 20th birthday to one of my most successful and cherished films – HUM AAPKE HAI KAUN. Thank you Sooraj for making this classic.”
And guess what? On the same day that Hum Aapke Hain Koun celebrates 20 years, Salman Khan’s latest release ‘Kick’ has joined the 200 crore club, also making it the highest grossing Salman Khan film ever!
@sss khan your truthful comments gave me cancer!!! :D :D :D
Also movies like Talaash is beyond your fickle thoughts..also ask our King to provide a timeless comedy like AAA..if this movie was a bakwaas for you, then trust me CE is like RGV ki Aag for me..
WRT 3 Idiots, if you have attended school or college, haven’t you come across a genius student who studies a day before the exam and still ends up being a topper?? Well, I had such friends who have graduated from IIMs and IITs and are successful in their own way..
and wrt DDLJ, KKHH and some of our Kings so called romantic movies, there were loads of logical loopholes which I can bisect it for a tard like you..
also WRT awards, Lagaan has gone till the final round of Best Film in foreign language..ask our King to provide such movies instead of Chindi Express and New Year inside Washing Machine..
and lastly wrt the comparison between HAHK and DDLJ, even SRKians fav site BOI has termed Bollywood as pre HAHK and post HAHK era..also HAHK reruns are most watched even today compared to DDLJ..and FYI, DDLJ is still chasing HAHKs BO collections even today.. So pls stop spreading your nonsense without knowing facts!!!!
@sid_pagal,DDLJ’S WW COLLECTION is higher than crappy hahk.also no one counted later how much DDLJ earned in later 12 years excluding Maratha mandir.this is not possible for any film of India.yes besides lagaan I criticized every movie which I liked still it is too weaker compared to MNIK,CDI and SWADES is much higher critically acclaimed than lagaan.still DDLJ included with MI,SHOLAY in “1000 movies you must see before die” list,so why couldn’t lagaan/crappy hahk couldn’t do it?MNIK liked much higher than lagaan is overseas kindly don’t include mindless multistarrer 3 idiots/d3.
btw,when I compared CE with your star’s film,that one is needed for BO collections.ask your stars yo do a single role like CLASSIC SAGA-JTHJ and to make it hit with a clash,then I will see your star’s star power.you don’t have enough knowledge to understand sorry to FEEL the movie.
in boi only domestic counted but DDLJ is much famous and glorious in terms of value than hahk which is a family entertainer unlike DDLJ which is A ONE MAN SHOW. when salman’ favorite boi showed pre and post hahk era kindly show me/give the link,I would love to see.
you mean timeless comedy means aa aa aaila..oh Teri!!! and also Hui ma!!lol.CE is far better comedy than that crappy overrated aaa ‘s comedy.
talash also needs mind?lol.post some more jokes,when a supernatural power reveals the truth which seems totally unrealistic in a thriller rather than in a horror movie,lol.your comment also seems like too much overrated like you.I was a NIT student and also a mechanical engineer and many of my friends already compared their studies in IIT who are more talented than your fake rancho of 3i needed very hard labour to achieve success.no doubt you have to understand the concept which is right but getting top rank with out reading/practicing problems is just a joke.by doing so a genious also couldn’t able to even pass the exam simply will fail.I think you’re not a engg. student and are too obsessed with your perfaketionist that’s your mind is not working properly.
last thing,there is no amir fans exists in India,all are salman fans in disguise just like you who is now supporting an non actor even knowing who couldn’t come even near to KING KHAN in terms of acting.the reason behind that only salman fans could accept and respect amir as an actor but SRKIANS couldn’t accept it be cause they know the fact -though amir could choose best story still his acting is not as much powerful AS LIKE KING KHAN.otherwise amir would have those highest 15FILMFARE that KING KHAN HAS. but amir couldn’t achieve that even choosing best story,lol.though amir is good actor but couldn’t.be added in LEGEND LEAGUE-DILLIPJI,BIGB,KING KHAN.
Lol..discussing you and making the horse drink water from the pond is pure waste of time my dear @sss khan!!! :D :D :D
nobody gives a crap to your comments as evident by the dislike you got!!! :D :D
Its you who need a therapy..i too am a NITian with a degree in Computer Engineering..looks like you weren’t exposed to cinema what NITians normally see..that’s why you have gone insane..
Regarding my comment on HAHK vs DDLJ, here it is..
http://wayback.archive.org/web/20130115031502/http://boxofficeindia.com/showProd.php?itemCat=126&catName=MTk5MC0xOTk5
also.. DDLJ a one man show?? more jokes please..SRK and Kajol had acted in Baazigar and Karan Arjun before DDLJ.. also my dear buddy, i never questioned DDLJ’s iconic status..it’s your idiotic comments which forced me to speak..
Regarding Lagaan, it is ranked No 55 in Empire magazines “The 100 Best Films of World Cinema”. Also mentioned in TIME’s 25 best Sports movies across the world. Also HAHK has won the National award for the Best Film that provides Wholesome Entertainment in the year 1994.
and regarding powerful acting..i would say that SRK stands for charm and passion, AK Sir stands for perfection, Bhai stands for innocence and swag..and all three are distinctive from each other..all the 3 Khans belong to the Big League along with Dilipji, Raj Kapoor, Dev Anand, BigB and Dharmendra..you can check this info in any magazine on this Earth..even HR is there in this list..
Even i can sit and bash SRK just like how most of the ppl do it, but i respect him as he too has made my childhood awesome with movies like Kabhi Haan Kabhi Naa, Darr etc etc..so my request to you is to respect others work rather than bashing them..
sid_original,it’s a 2 dislike from sallu fans that couldn’t affect me a bit.also how could you decide everyone is just free and eagerly waiting to hang up with mentally challenged peoles like you.don’t think/declare yourself as a vip/genious in your opinion with out asking other’s opinion you overconfident.
IN ICONIC STATUS,DDLJ IS THE HIGHEST AWARD WINNING FILM OF INDIAN CINEMA.EVEN TODAY ALSO PEOPLE LISTEN UT’S SONGS AND PROUDLY WATCHES IT but mo one even ask that 90’s family old kinda movie ran and made for that time only and also whose WW collection is less than DDLJ.DDLJ IS ALSO LONGEST RUNNING FILM and a milestone of 90’s and called DDLJ ERA not in terms of collection.I agreed and obeyed what BOI written for hahk which us the domestic higher grosser than DDLJ. but honestly and basically DDLJ is better than hahk in terms of value.DDLJ is a love story while hahk is a pure family entertainer for the reason why it collected more than DDLJ clearly due to family audience honestly speaking SRK’S ACT WAS TOO POWERFUL while salman’s act is too average in hahk,which you have to agree if you’re not biased and if could see things from acting point of view.In no way hahk could be compared with ICONIC DDLJ..you couldn’t understand,hahk is the movie which success depended upon it’s family members rather than salman who remained in statue mode while DDLJ’S SUCCESS TOTALLY DEPENDED UPON SRK little on kajol and other star cast.1st understand then write you irritating creature.
good to see another NITian but there’s a huge difference between software and mechanical engg. is there.might you would have understand this.normally I loved to watch films from childhood and watch movies and play games excessively which normal NITian does and I too read subjects before 1 -1.5month of exam and what amir played character is of a mechanical engg. and I wrote all that by kept a genius in that mechanical discipline position not a average reader like me.also mechanical branch consisting of a wide range of problems that usually software engineer never faced rather very easy going.so it’s sounds like most overrated a mechanical student becomes topper only by knowing concept with out check it’s deep and intense conceptual problems is really very funny as well astonishing,lol.really hats off to you for being so much overrated and also being obsessed.kindly post sensible opinion.
TIMES also declared SRK HAS 3.7 BILLION FANS’.could you agree that,no,right?lagaan is good not as much creative like CDI/MNIK .but it didn’t added in 100 best films of world ,kindly post the link,lol.IT’S FILMFARE not me/you WHO DECIDES WHO IS BEST NON OTHER THAN KING SRK.
amir is an actor of good films not like BEST ACTOR IN EVERY FILMS LIKE SRK. he is choosing great story for which he got title of perfection also due to await audience year by year which put a wrong cocept in everyone’s mind,lol.
but however I respect amir as an actor and hate his unnecessarily praising sallu and degrading SRK always especially in twitter,after that my respect towards him decreased and becomes neutral when he gone to SRK’S HOME to say him sorry.BTW my favorite amir film is Mann which was a bo failure,where amir’s sentiment is used heavily.and calling salman as an actor is an insult to ACTORS.I respected him once upon a time which doesn’t exists after done all back to back sins.the day he will accept his guilty instead of hiding like a thief,from then onwards not me but also many will forgiven him otherwise no chance.also tell me when innocense becomes a type actevenalmost all actors looks innocent and gentle in siiraj barjatya’s movies.SRK looks more more innocent than every actor in many of his films like DEEWANA,KHKN,CHAMATKAR,DUPLICATE,RBGM,DAH,GUDDU,YB,CHAAHAT AND MANY OF HIS REMAINING FILMS even in Ra One also.that’s a expression not an act you fool film watchers,also what is perfection?is that a type of act?,lol.keep posting some more jokes likes this.I am not a hater of amir rather he is doing such works that forced me to hate him.SRK IS MOST VERSATILE ACTOR AND HAS SUCCESS IN EVERY GENRE and proved HIMSELF THE BEST IN WORLD IN ACTING/WEALTH and getting so BIGGEST HONOURS and invited by RUSSIA,GERMANY’S PRESIDENT and to even MEXICAN PRESIDENT MET HIM ON HNY SHOOTING SET AND HE IS THE FAVOURITE OF MANY COUNTRY that couldn’t be possible for any Indian star with out having any industry relation being a COMMON MAN. still if people will compare him with salman/amir,then really hats off to those peoples only GOD CAN HELP THOSE PEOPLES.

audience honestly speaking SRK’S ACT WAS TOO
POWERFUL while salman’s act is too average in
hahk,which you have to agree if you’re not biased
and if could see things from acting point of view.In
no way hahk could be compared with ICONIC
DDLJ..you couldn’t understand,hahk is the movie
which success depended upon it’s family members
