No. l've had enough of a good time.

My years of youth are over for me

Never say your youth is over.

All my life l've slogged to give

you whatever l couldn't do

When youth came and went,

l never got to know

But l wasn't sad, because l knew

that my son will have my years

lf you think you've had enough

of a good time...

if you think the years of youth

are over for you, well no problem

Just go and live my years for me

Ajit's letter?

Lajjo! Look, what's here

Letter! From my friend

From Ajit

Just smell it, lady!

The fragrance of Punjab!

The flavour of mustard curry

on leavened maiZe bread

Those long tailed shirts,

the short knickers

''My dear friend Baldev,

We're fine here''

''We hope to God that you, yourwife

and the children are well too''

''You will be pleased to hearthat

my son has graduated in arts''

wedding! Celebrate it with sweets

Chutki! l'm so happy today

Can l say one thing?

. Say fourthings

lt'd be betterto ask Simran once.

. What are you saying?

Ever since she was a baby, she has

known that she is engaged to kuljit

That she knows. But 20 years...

. Don't you worry!

Simran is going to be so happy,...

Aditya Chopra

Aditya Chopra (born 21 May 1971) is an Indian filmmaker. His work as a director includes Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Mohabbatein (2000), Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) and Befikre (2016).He is also the current Chairman of India's multi-national film, media and entertainment conglomerate Yash Raj Films (YRF). Chopra has written and produced a number of critically acclaimed and commercially successful films under the banner such as Veer-Zaara (2004), Fanaa (2006), Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012), the Dhoom series (2004, 2006 & 2013), Sultan (2016) and the Tiger series (2012 & 2017). He has broken away from typecast through production of off-beat films such as Kabul Express (2006), Chak De! India (2007), Rocket Singh (2009), Dum Laga Ke Haisha (2015) and Hichki! (2018), that do not necessarily fit into the realm of "Masala films". Chopra is also the first to move towards a true film studio model through independent projects helmed by producers, writers and directors under his banner. Major production and post-production work of the company is now carried out of YRF Studios (co-founded by his ex-wife Payal Khanna), where Chopra serves as Chief Executive. As of March 2018, he has produced eight films that have accumulated worldwide gross earnings of more than ₹200 crore, which is the most for an Indian film producer. In December 2009, Chopra rejected an extremely aggressive acquisition bid by Walt Disney, valued upwards of ₹2500 crore, to remain and continue purely as an independent entity exclusively funded by domestic enterprises. Apart from emerging as an equitable brand, his company has earned the status of a movie movie mogul, through distribution networks spread across the globe. With a majority of his work being part of the highest grossing films of all time, the company is estimated to be net worth ₹6350 crore (FY17/18) by multiple NSE and BSE analysts, thereby making it the biggest and most successful film production company in the history of Cinema. The Government of India honoured him with the National Film Award for his contribution to the arts, on three separate years (1995, 2005 and 2007) through the Directorate of Film Festivals. In June 2018, he was awarded membership into The Academy by the Producers Guild of America. Widely regarded as one of the most influential and powerful executives in Indian entertainment, Chopra has however rejected the publicity and fame that came with being Yash Chopra's son and the Chief Executive of Yash Raj Films. He has remained extremely media-shy and a passive individual, battling constant reports of an alleged dysthymic disorder throughout his three-decade career, resulting in very few public photos of him being in existence. more…
