Pooja Ruparel shot to fame after the success of Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge. Known for films like King Uncle among several others, the actress is still remembered for playing Chutki in the iconic romantic drama co-starring Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol. As the film completed 30 years in October, Pooja looked back at the audience's love that still feels rewarding. Pooja Ruparel on audience's love for Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge "It’s impossible to imagine an artist’s journey without their audience. When people still talk about my roles from King Uncle or DDLJ, it leaves me completely stunned. Those characters have become a part of people’s personal memories their childhoods and teenage years and that’s such a sacred thing for me. Knowing that I’m a small part of someone’s personal history drives me. It fills me with gratitude and renews my zeal to keep entertaining with whatever skills I have," Pooja said.

She recalled, “When I was ten, I got a fan letter written in blood for King Uncle it was overwhelming at that age! Another memory is from a man in Nepal who carried a camera into the theatre just to take a picture of me from DDLJ because there wasn’t a poster with my face on it. He even made his own ‘Chutki poster'." Whether it’s fans sending her handmade gifts, wedding pictures, or leaving endearing “Marry me!” comments on social media, Pooja treasures every gesture. “It’s amazing how someone who’s met you just once can remember you so deeply. I may never meet all my fans, but I can feel their love and that love forms the foundation of everything I do," she said, signing off.
