Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman (transl. Raju became a Gentleman) is a 1992 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy-drama film directed by Aziz Mirza starring Shah Rukh Khan, Amrita Singh, Juhi Chawla and Nana Patekar. Khan plays Raju, a young Diploma Holder in Civil Engineering from Darjeeling who comes to Bombay hoping to become a successful engineer.[1] The film emerged as a commercial success. The movie plot is loosely inspired by the 1987 movie The Secret of My Success[2], the Raj Kapoor classic Shree 420 (1955) and Anari (1959). The rights to this film are owned by Khan's Red Chillies Entertainment.
At the 38th Filmfare Awards, Raju Ban Gaya Gentleman won Best Screenplay (Mirza and Lalwani), in addition to a Best Supporting Actor nomination for Patekar.
