Dia Mirza is living through the important moments of the past by taking part in the 10-year challenge trend, which has encouraged everyone to dig through their archives and find old photos to look back on. The actress chose to speak about one of her biggest projects to date, the movie Rehnaa Hai Terre Dil Mein starring R Madhavan and Saif Ali Khan. Taking to her Instagram account to drop a bunch of memories from their photoshoot, she wrote, “This was 2016 On 19th October 2026 it will be 25 years. A gift that keeps on giving. Name the film Oh Maddy. Maddy look what showed up?" She added heart emojis and tagged her co-star.


Fans reciprocated the love with their own excitement on the film completing 25 years in the industry and what it means for them, with words like “RHTDM forever” and “not just a movie- it’s an emotion” being thrown into the mix. 

Playing Reena Malhotra and Maddy Shastri, the two actors gained massive popularity, which was not immediately evident when the movie premiered; however, the characters and the music score of the movie have left a legacy that still holds a strong grip on its fans even today. It became evident as the movie was re-released in 2024 and managed to attract throngs of viewers to the cinemas. It is said to have earned Rs 3.5 crore at the box office during its re-run.
