DDLJ could end its run at Maratha Mandir after 1000 weeks

Aditya Chopra’s eternal romantic film Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge could finally end its theatrical run on December 18 2014. The theatre owners of Maratha Mandir are planing to talk to Chopra and the stakeholders of the theatre, after which they will decide if the matinee show at the theatre will be replaced with some other film after nearly 20 years!

“We may not show this film after December once it completes 1000 weeks. Over the years, we got good response as the cinema hall is close to the Mumbai Central railway station and state transport bus stand. Recently, the collection has taken a nosedive and, therefore, we are thinking of discontinuing the show” says Manoj Desai, the managing director of the iconic Maratha Mandir.

“The film is regularly aired on television and it has been nearly 20 years since it was released. So, the entire generation has watched the it and we have also had the audience, which has seen it more than 100 times. But we feel that this particular screen can be used for other shows now. The final decision will be taken once we have the consent of all stakeholders”

The journey for the longest and most loved films in the history of Indian Cinema, could come to an end in December this year.

  • Maine kya likha aur yeh log kya soch rahe hai….when i said that ddlj, collected more than hahk? ….i just said that after hahk, salman took 14 years to beat ddlj!!!!

  • @brainless lallu fans….
    its not allways about boxoffice collection and records….
    ddlg is d best romantic movie ever in india… thats it
    and nobody except lallu fans wil say that it cant cross crap hahk.., but the whole world will remember this as the longest running movie ever…..
    the joke of swach bharat is nice but the movie is even nicer…

  • @sht, if babul, sawariya etc are salman movies then kaal, bhootnath, always kabhi kabhi, billu, dulha mil gaya etc all are srk movies….

  • @sht, read carefully
    love was a semi hit, also superhit Sajan released between love nd nischay, so how they(mentioned by u) bcm back to back? In that way i can make a list of srk’s 20 back to back flops.

    For ur 2nd installmnt:
    Blockbuster HSSH released in november 1999. Also clean hit baghban released in 2003. So only morons can say salman had no clean hits from 1999-2004. One more thing, Out of 11 movies(u mentioned) only 2 movies were flops(chal mere bhai nd yeh hai jalwa), 9 were average/semi hits.

    For ur 3rd instalmnt:
    from 2005-2009 Salman had 2 blockbusters( no entry nd partner) nd 1 superhit(wanted).

    Plz don’t make urself fool with wrong informations.
