As the legacy of the iconic #YashChopra is celebrated through #TheRomantics on Netflix, here are some trivias related to Yash Chopra and Yash Raj Films..
After Daag (1973), Yash Chopra was reportedly producing a film called #Gardish, directed by #PranMehra, feat. @SrBachchan #NeetuSingh and #ParveenBabi.

The film was eventually shelved, and the lead cast teamed up for #Deewar (1975).
In 1993, Yash Chopra launched another banner "Aditya Films Pvt. Ltd." under which they produced #Aaina (1993) and #YehDillagi (1994) - both directed by his assistants - Deepak Sareen & Naresh Malhotra, respectively.

Breakthrough for composer duo Dilip Sen - Sameer Sen.

I wrote this article in The Tribune @thetribunechd on the long-running prevalence of #Punjab/i/s - the state, the language, culture & people - in Bollywood.

Addendum: while working on this article, I learnt that though tons of media articles say @karanjohar is #YashChopra's nephew, s/o Yash's sister Hiroo, & even Karan's Wiki page says so, the truth is the Johars & Chopras are not related. Some lessons to be learnt here so, thread👇🏾
