MUMBAI: Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge is indeed one of the most loved Bollywood movies of all time. The movie has made its strong mark in the history of Bollywood and also in the hearts and Minds of the fans.

Well having said that, how can we also forget the amazing club scene where Shahrukh Khan flirts with one of Simran’s friends Sheena. Do you know the actress who played Kajol's friend in the movie is a Bollywood stylist Anaita Shroff Adajania.
Talking about how she landed the role, she wrote on Instagram, “I was in college when Adi (Aditya Chopra) and Karan (Johar) asked me to help them cast my college friends to play Raj and Simran’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.”

On working with Shah Rukh Khan Anaita said, “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).”
She had also appeared in Shah Rukh Khan’s another film, Kal Ho Naa Ho in 2003 in which she played the role of Saif Ali Khan’s friend Gita.
