Aaina (transl. Mirror) is a 1993 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama film directed by Deepak Sareen, produced by Yash Chopra and his wife Pamela Chopra. It stars Jackie Shroff, Amrita Singh, Juhi Chawla in lead roles, with Deepak Tijori in a supporting role. The film was a blockbuster hit and solidified Chawla's career as a leading lady in the 1990s. Singh's performance in a negative role was highly appreciated and is regarded as one of her career-best performances.[2][3] The film was remade in Telugu as Aayanaki Iddaru (1995), in Tamil as Kalyana Vaibhogam (1997), in Dhivehi as Dhauvaa (1998), and in Kannada as Yare Nee Abhimani (2000).
