Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], October 9 (ANI): United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer visited Yash Raj Films (YRF) Studios, where he was treated to the iconic romantic track 'Tujhe Dekha To Ye Jana Sanam' from Aditya Chopra's directorial, 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge'.

The popular track was played to mark the film's 30th anniversary.

Released in 1995, DDLJ remains a landmark film of Indian cinema. People loved the romantic chemistry between Shah Rukh Khan and Kajol, and the song 'Tujhe Dekha To Ye Jana Sanam', composed by Jatin-Lalit and sung by Lata Mangeshkar and Kumar Sanu, has become a timeless romantic track.

Taking to the Instagram handle, YRF shared the video in which UK PM Keir Starmer can be seen enjoying the hit track. 'Incredibly honoured to have had the opportunity to host the UK Prime Minister @keirstarmer at Yash Raj Films in Mumbai yesterday! The UK & YRF's relationship go back a long way and we were thrilled to make the PM listen to the iconic Tujhe Dekha Toh Yeh Jaana Sanam from Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (DDLJ) as the Bollywood blockbuster celebrates its 30th anniversary.
