Unlike typical hero-heroine stereotypes, the characters in Chalte Chalte are flawed and real.
| Character | Actor | Index Description | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Raj Mathur | Shah Rukh Khan | A possessive, short-tempered yet loving husband. He represents the "ordinary man" whose pride destroys his marriage. | | Priya Mathur (née Chopra) | Rani Mukerji | Elegant, mature, and patient but not a doormat. She walks out when respect ends. Rani won the IIFA Award for Best Actress for this role. | | Anna (Mausi) | Lillete Dubey | Priya’s worldly-wise aunt who acts as a mediator.

Surprisingly, he is not a villain but a dignified, hurt man. | | Bobby | Achint Kaur | Priya’s sarcastic, modern best friend who dislikes Raj from the start. | All lyrics by Javed Akhtar ; composed by Jatin–Lal
