After Yash Chopra's 'Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge' released, no person could complain about the casting, especially for Shah Rukh Khan as Raj and Kajol as Simran. However, very few people are aware that Shah Rukh Khan did not even want to be part of the project. While Shah Rukh Khan liked the script, he thought he was 'too old' and 'not good-looking' to pull off the role. It so happens that as soon as Shah Rukh Khan started shooting for the film, he found himself to be 90% of Raj. In fact, he got so involved with the film that Shah Rukh Khan insisted on adding a little violence in the movie.
