Kiran Kumar reminisces about Salman Khan-starrer 'Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya' as film turns 28

Actor Kiran Kumar revisits the iconic gun-throw scene from 'Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya' as the Salman Khan-Kajol film completes 28 years.

"28 Years to this evergreen film. - Kiran Kumar"

Mumbai, March 28

Actor Kiran Kumar turned nostalgic as the 1998 hit film Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya starring Salman Khan, Kajol and Dharmendra, completed 28 years since its release, revisiting one of its memorable action moments.

Taking to Instagram, the veteran actor shared a string of pictures featuring the much-talked-about gun-throw scene involving Salman.

He wrote: "28 Years to this evergreen film. What I really want you guys to answer is, how many takes do you think this gun throw took? (Also, you can hold the dots below and slide back and forth to animate this scene!) #pyarkiyatodarnakya #kirankumar #salmankhan."

Pyaar Kiya To Darna Kya is a 1998 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film written and directed by Sohail Khan. It stars Dharmendra, Salman Khan, Kajol and Arbaaz Khan.

The film follows Suraj, a young man, who falls for Muskan, and her possessive brother takes an instant dislike towards him. However, to get his love, he must first win the hearts of her brother and uncle.

Talking about Kiran, he attended a boarding school in Indore, enrolled at R.D. National College in Mumbai, and later joined the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII).

One of his first television series was with Cinevistas (Sunil Mehta, Prem Kishen). He has since established himself as a star in the Indian television industry in series such as Zindagi, Ghutan, Sahil, Manzil, Grihasti, and Katha Sagar.

Meanwhile, Salman will next be seen in 'Battle of Galwan' based on the Galwan stand-off between India and its expansionist neighbour, China, on June 15, 2020, during the thick of the first wave of the Covid-19 pandemic in India.

The Indian and Chinese troops clashed in the Galwan Valley, eastern Ladakh. It was part of a larger border standoff along the Line of Actual Control (LAC). The clash turned violent when both sides attempted to patrol disputed areas, leading to hand-to-hand combat.

The fighting resulted in the deaths of 20 Indian soldiers, while China also suffered casualties. This was the deadliest India-China face-off in over four decades, escalating tensions and prompting both nations to increase troop deployments and engage in diplomatic talks to avoid further conflict.

Directed by Apoorva Lakhia, the film is set to release on April 17.

I bet that scene took just one take! Salman bhai was in his prime. Great to see Kiran Kumar sir remembering this. The songs are still played at every Indian wedding!

Respectfully, while the nostalgia is nice, the article takes a sharp turn from a fun film memory to the Galwan clash. Feels a bit disjointed. Could have been two separate pieces.

Interesting read. As someone newer to Indian cinema, it's cool to learn about these classic films. The behind-the-scenes trivia from actors like Kiran Kumar is always valuable.

The real heroes are our soldiers at Galwan. Jai Hind. It's good that a mainstream star like Salman is doing a film on it. We must never forget their sacrifice.

"O o o jaane jaana" is still my go-to happy song! This article brought back so many memories of watching this with my family. Dharmendra ji was fantastic as the strict brother.
