Shah Rukh Khan’s film Darr will soon complete thirty years of its release.
A Twitter user decided to go down the memory lane where Uday Chopra has been chatting with his father Yash Chopra, revealing that Hrithik Roshan helped him pick the name ‘Darr’.

He also revealed that the film was inspired by the 1989 Australian feature starring Sam Neill, Nicole Kidman and Billy Zane. In conversation, he looks back and recalls, “The truth about Darr, the way it started is that Hrithik and I were once watching a film, a very little-known film called It’s called Dead Kill. We saw the video of the film and decided to have Adi [her brother, Aditya Chopra] watch it, just to show that it’s a very good film. Adi saw the film and liked it immediately. It’s the inspiration for Darr that actually came out.”
He added, “Actually, the title Darr is the title that Hrithik had for a film that he actually made, an amateur film that he shot. It was Hrithik’s title and Adi when he decided to make this film, he said. Told Hrithik that I am going to use this title because it is very appropriate.
