Chalte Chalte is a romantic drama film from India that was released in 2003. Directed by Aziz Mirza, the film features Shah Rukh Khan and Rani Mukerji in the leading roles. This film was notable as the final production from Dreamz Unlimited before it transitioned to Red Chillies Entertainment later that year.
Released on June 13, 2003, Chalte Chalte achieved significant commercial success, grossing ₹43.38 crore (approximately $5.4 million) globally. Critics praised the film for its engaging theme, well-crafted screenplay, memorable soundtrack, and strong performances from the leads. However, some reviewers pointed out thematic similarities with Saathiya (2002), which also starred Mukerji. The film was showcased at the Casablanca Film Festival.
