Wiki.
Darr: A Violent Love Story (Hindi pronunciation: [ɖər]; lit. Fear) is a 1993 Indian Hindi-language romantic psychological thriller film directed and produced by Yash Chopra under his banner Yash Raj Films. It stars Sunny Deol and Juhi Chawla in lead roles with Shah Rukh Khan as the main antagonist. Annu Kapoor, Tanvi Azmi, Anupam Kher and Dalip Tahil play supporting roles. In the film, Kiran Awasthi (Chawla) is stalked by her obsessive lover Rahul Mehra (Khan), who goes berserk when she gets engaged to Sunil Malhotra (Deol), a navy officer, and decides to forcefully claim Kiran for himself.
Darr released on 24 December 1993, coinciding with the Christmas weekend, and emerged as a major commercial success and was declared a blockbuster at the box-office. The film ranked as the third highest-grossing Hindi film of the year and the highest-grossing Indian film of the year in overseas markets, the film. It received widespread critical acclaim upon release, with high praise for the direction, story, screenplay, soundtrack, cinematography, costumes and the performances of the cast.
Darr proved to be a milestone for both Chawla and Khan's careers, catapulting them to superstardom. The film emerged as Chawla's fourth consecutive commercial success that year, thus solidifying her career as a leading lady in the 1990s, while Khan's portrayal of an obsessive lover was widely applauded by critics and audiences alike.
Darr won the National Film Award for Best Popular Film Providing Wholesome Entertainment at the 41st National Film Awards.
