Saajan

Saajan is a 1991 Hindi film directed by Lawrence D'Souza and starring Salman Khan, Sanjay Dutt, and Madhuri Dixit. It was released on 30 August, 1991. It is partly inspired by the French play Cyrano de Bergerac. Aman (Sanjay Dutt) is an impoverished and handicapped orphan who is befriended by wealthy Akash Verma (Salman Khan) during his childhood. Akash's parents adopt Aman and give him their family name, so Akash and Aman grow up as brothers. While Akash is a womaniser, Aman takes to writing poems under the pen name Sagar. The poems get published, and Aman becomes very popular. One of his fans is a young woman by the name of Pooja Saxena (Madhuri Dixit), who corresponds with him. Akash meets Pooja and falls head over heels in love with her. When Aman comes to know of this, he asks Akash to pose as Sagar as he knows that although women may like his poetry, they will never come out openly and love him when they see his handicap.
