One of Kajol's very first scenes in Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge saw her dancing around her room in a fluffy towel, and nothing else. The actor was quite hesitant about shooting a song in the fresh-out-of-a-shower look, but the scenes eventually became some of her most-loved by fans.

Raj dropping Simran on the ground during ‘Ruk Ja O Dil Deewane’ was always part of the choreography—except Kajol didn't know about it. That shell-shocked expression on her face at the end of the song was a genuine reaction.

According to reports, the crew of the film faced a little trouble while shooting for ‘Tujhe Dekha Toh Yeh Jaana Sanam’. The filming, which took place in a village in Haryana, apparently upset the residents who owned the plot where part of the song was being shot. Shah Rukh Khan (quite heroically) stepped in to chat with the land owners and iron out the issues.
