Salman Khan took away the spotlight from Shah Rukh Khan, Kajol, and Rani Mukerji with his extended cameo in the romantic drama, Kuch Kuch Hota Hai, as Aman Mehra. Arranged to marry Anjali (Kajol) in the film, he became a symbol of letting go, and real love even due to his emotional portrayal of Aman Mehra, who loved Anjali so much that he found his happiness in hers.
