Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge · Filming location
Saint-Grat church, Montbovon
In the story · Simran prays in the church
A real filming location for the inside of the church. Simran kneels to pray for the husband she has been promised, while Raj teases her and then makes a wish of his own. The outside seen in the film is Saanen; the inside is this small neo-Gothic church in the canton of Fribourg.
