Meanwhile, apart from King of Kotha, Dulquer Salmaan will also be seen in Guns & Gulaabs. During the trailer launch, Delhi Dulquer said, “How much I try to break out of the "Romantic Hero" tag, it keeps finding me and I think Sita Ramam has taken it to a level which I have never imagined in my life. The amount of love I received from all over the world across languages and cultures and countries is incredible. I am very grateful. We’re all huge fans of Shah Rukh sir from the 90s so I think Sita Ramam is my DDLJ (Dilwale Dulhaniyaa Le Jayenge).”
Starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol in the lead roles, Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge, a 1995 romantic blockbuster, is the longest-running movie in the history of Indian cinema and continues to enjoy its screening at Mumbai’s Maratha Mandir theatre. It is one of the biggest IPs emerging from the Indian film industry. ‘DDLJ’ has shaped pop culture for India and Indians over the generations. Sita Ramam recently won the prestigious Dadasaheb Phalke Award for Best Film Jury.
