Bhansali Productions’ Instagram page also published some previously unseen photographs from the shoot, which included the three leading actors. “We experienced a gamut of feelings then, and we’re experiencing a gamut of emotions now as we open our treasure chest Celebrating 22 Years of living and enjoying Vanraj, Nandini, and Sameer’s testament of love,” the message continued.
Hum Dil De Chuke Sanam is a love musical drama set in Rajasthan’s deserts, based on Rashtriyashayar Jhaverchand Meghani’s play “Shetal ne Kathe.” It told the narrative of Vanraj (Devgn), a newlywed man who discovers that his wife is in love with another man.
To his family’s chagrin, he embarks on a mission to reconcile the lovers.
While on the quest for Sameer (Khan), his wife Nandini (Rai) discovers Vanraj’s goodness and falls in love with him.
