Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge's Palat scene was copied?

One of the most famous scenes from the film is the Palat scene wherein Simran turns back to take a look at Raj, while taking the train. This DDLJ Palat scene was actually copied from a Hollywood film titled In The Line of Fire. This film starred Clint Eastwood and Rene Russo in the lead roles. While the Palat scene was inspired by it, it was not exactly the same.

In the original clip Clint Eastwood is seen saying "If she looks back, that means she's interested. Come on now give me a little look. a little glance back. give me that smug look and be on your way". He says it as Rene goes away and looks back at him. In the film, Clint is seen as a spy for protecting his country.
