We all know the history of films that later earn cult status but no one can predict that success before their release. Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein (2001) is one such example. This rare, exclusive throwback interview with Dia Mirza takes you back to the days before the film hit theatres, when no one imagined it would become the timeless classic it is today. Fresh after winning Miss Asia Pacific 2000, Dia had just stepped into Bollywood, unaware that her debut would win millions of hearts! In this candid conversation, she speaks about avoiding stereotypes often attached to beauty queens entering into cinema, instead choosing to let her work speak for itself. She also opens up about her character in the film, working with R. Madhavan, the film's unforgettable music & her expectations before release. Relive this rare chapter of cinema history in conversation with the queen herself, only on Lehren.
