After Aditya Chopra faced flack over casting American actor Austin Colby for the role of Raj in the musical inspired by Dilwale Dulhania Le Jaayenge, the filmmaker opened up about how before DDLJ came into being, his original idea of the story was that of a white man falling in love with an “Indian Simran”.
In a statement, he said, “I first conceived the story of DDLJ as a Hollywood love story of a white American man and an Indian woman. My main motivation at that time was to present Indian culture and values to a global audience. Years later, as I reimagine the story as a Broadway musical, my mainstay is still the same, showcasing Indian culture to a world audience.””
