Footage from Kumar Gaurav-starrer 1981 film 'Love Story' has been used in the upcoming movie '1982 - A Love Marriage'. The latter's lead actor Amit Kumar says he is extremely grateful to the yesteryear actor who allowed the filmmakers to use the footage free of cost.

"'Love Story' had created a sensation in 1981. It had also set a trend in the society of love marriage. Our film's character Prem watches the film in 1981, and after that, his mind changes and he doesn't want to do an arranged marriage," Amit told IANS.
