On Sunday, Dubai's iconic skyscraper, the Burj Khalifa's projecting mapping show lit up to The Rembrandts' "I'll be there for you" - also known as the theme tune of "Friends".

The light show showcased a string of iconic moments and objects from the show -- from Joey's signature dialogue, 'How You Doing?' to Monica's yellow peephole frame.

Twenty five years ago, actors Jennifer Aniston, David Schwimmer, Courteney Cox, Lisa Kudrow, Matt LeBlanc and Matthew Perry became household names with "Friends". Till date, the star cast is fondly known by their characters' names among their fans.
