As Darr completes 30 years, Juhi Chawla, who was seen as Kiran in the film, called Darr ‘one of the highlights’ of her career. She also recalled her reaction to the film’s casting. Darr, which was a box office hit, was earlier offered to actor Aamir Khan. Juhi said she was thrilled to hear that Shah Rukh Khan would be playing the anti-hero in Darr, but recalled feeling happy when she first heard about her former co-star Aamir Khan being cast in the role.
