Come Fall in Love, a new musical based on one of the biggest blockbuster films in the history of Indian cinema, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, is set to make its world premiere in the UK in Summer 2025.

Come Fall in Love will be set in the UK and directed by Aditya Chopra, the original director of the record-breaking, award-winning Hindi-language film.

Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, affectionately known as DDLJ, is the longest-running title in Indian cinema, playing continuously in Mumbai since its release in 1995.

Come Fall in Love The DDLJ Musical

The show centres on the love story of Simran, a young British Indian woman whose future is set: an arranged marriage back in India to a family friend. But when she convinces her very strict dad that she should spend a summer of freedom and fun in Europe, she falls in love with Roger, a British charmer with a heart of gold, and her careful, logical plans go out the window. Can she be true to both her heritage and her heart? Can carefree Rog win over her traditional father?

Cultures will once again collide in the stage musical adaptation, which will feature 18 all-new songs by Indian composer Vishal Dadlani and Sheykhar Ravjiani, and a book and lyrics by Nell Benjamin (Mean Girls, Legally Blonde) writing the book and lyrics.

Choreography will be by Rob Ashford (Frozen, How to Succeed on Broadway), Associate Choreography – Indian Dances by Shruti Merchant (Ladies vs. Ricky Bahl, Taj Express), Set Design by Derek McLane (MJ the Musical, Moulin Rouge! The Musical) and Casting by David Grindrod CDG for Grindrod Burton Casting.

Venue, dates, cast and further creatives to be announced.

Come Fall in Love is produced by Aditya Chopra’s Yash Raj Films.
