Aditya Chopra Takes 'DDLJ' To America, To Direct The Blockbuster As A Broadway Musical!

 

After recently completing 26 years, DDLJ is now being adapted as a Broadway stage musical titled 'Come Fall in Love - The DDLJ Musical' by ace filmmaker Aditya Chopra.

As per a statement released by Yash Raj Films on Friday evening, the upcoming musical will be based on an original story by Chopra, which he described as:

"a love story of an American boy and an Indian girl, a love story of two cultures...two worlds."

The 1995 released film 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' marked Chopra's directorial debut at 23. And now Chopra is extremely excited as well as nervous to helm 'DDLJ' once again.

"I'm terribly nervous and incredibly excited. I'm a hardcore cinema guy, I have never done theatre in my life, and here I am trying to pull off the craziest ambition of my life. But what is giving me confidence is the fantastic team that I have. Each one of them is a master of their field, and their brilliance and expertise is going to make this a fantastic show,"
