If it wasn’t clear from Shah Rukh Khan’s chunky necklace, Rahul’s wardrobe in the movie was uber cool and steal-worthy even today.
You would be lying if said you didn’t want to raid his sporty outfits that were all about oversized hoodies, baggy jeans, sneakers and neon tees.

Aamir played a rebellious college student in this 90s classic whose style was always on point.
Throughout the film, he rocked denims-on-denims, polo T-shirts and even half sweaters that were in line with his young and charming character.

He wore chic outfits featuring sleeveless jackets, baseball hats and leather jackets that were way ahead of their time.

Salman Khan wore business casuals before it was cool in this cult film which was known for its fashion.
He played a rich, young businessman whose wardrobe consisted of casual blazers on solid tees in the office and zip-up sweatshirts when off-duty.

The sweet and caring Raghu in Dil Hai Ke Manta Nahi was no fashion savvy guy, but his style stood out and is still super trendy years later.
His signature navy cap, waistcoat over a shirt and bomber jackets are seen as really stylish streetwear today.
