Qayamat Se Qayamat Tak took the nation by storm when it released 25 years ago on April 29, 1988, and made its lead actors -- Aamir Khan and Juhi Chawla -- overnight stars.
To celebrate the event, Aamir chatted at length about the film and later held a special screening of the film at Light Box Theatre in Santa Cruz, a western suburb of Mumbai. It was followed by a party at his nephew Imran Khan's home.
