# Talk:Mohabbatein

I hear that mohabbatein means love. Is this true? Sanskrit or Hindi?

It means loves stories (from Mohabbat = love), as far as I know. --Plumcouch Talk2Me 11:56, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes. It means love stories in Hindi. It is sometimes used for referring love too. Piruty Pipaty (talk) 08:41, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

I don't know why you are posting this here, but your edits on the article look pretty good so far; keep up the good work. Bollyjeff | talk 20:45, 24 March 2021 (UTC)

Before the production of the film, Bachchan was attempting a revival of his career with little success, and was also in financial trouble with the bankruptcy of his production company, ABCL, not only hurting his image but leaving him almost penniless. It was at this time that Bachchan contacted his friend, director-producer Yash Chopra, who told him of an upcoming production that he could be in. With Mohabbatein, Bachchan was finally able to shed his "hero" image and to play older, more mature roles. This was also the first film in which Bachchan and Khan appeared together. This created a strong buzz for the film, as it brought two huge stars of different generations together.


### Filming
Filming took place in India and England. Longleat, a country house in Wiltshire, England, was used as the location of Gurukul. Oxford and Cambridge Universities were also used for filming. The scene where Narayan Shankar walks right before meeting Raj Aryan was filmed at the Queen's College, Oxford. The railway station scenes were shot at Apta Railway Station in Panvel, Maharashtra, India. The scene where Karan asks for friendship from Kiran was shot at Birla Mandir in Hyderabad, India. It was rumored that Sridevi was approached to be a love interest to Narayan Shankar, but she turned down the role. Midway through the filming of the song "Aankhein Khuli", Jugal Hansraj fractured his foot, which required him to wear a cast for the rest of the filming of the song. Aishwarya Rai was slated to only make a guest appearance, but her presence generated so much interest that her role was promoted to that of a regular character.

### From "Production"
 Chopra then narrated Mohabbatein to his father Yash Chopra, who was impressed by it; the latter also produced the film under his banner Yash Raj Films. In an interview with Screen, Yash Chopra described Mohabbatein as "a modern film, a film about today and it has all the ingredients of entertainment for people of all ages". He said the film shows the honour of Indian traditions and their values, adding; "On the whole Aditya has made a honest film, honest to God and honest to the audience who has given us so much".

### Progress
Hi!I am Piruty Pipaty. I would like to request all of you editing this page to use Hindu-Arabic System (crore/lakh) instead of International Number system (million/billion) for representing numbers as it is about the Indian film.Thank you!By Piruty Pipaty (talk) 08:40, 13 May 2024 (UTC)

Hi - I added the AI generated tag here in reference to the edits by Thefallguy2025. Their edits have consistently displayed indicators of potential LLM output (some of their past edits have kept the chatgpt parameter in the refs), and so I am tagging them all as it is unlikely they suddenly stopped using it. 
Since their text remains in the current version of this article, and it is unclear how much review was done of the output, it all needs review for sourcing, tone, accuracy/hallucinations, etc. (This applies even to changes that are "just" copy edits, as AI copy edits commonly introduce editorializing, subtle factual errors, unattributed opinion, non-neutral language, etc., even when they claim otherwise.)
The GA review came before these changes. Gnomingstuff (talk) 21:59, 17 September 2025 (UTC)
