Best of Yash Chopra

The King of Romance left us with some incredibly awesome romantic movies of the century. Lets for the last time recollect those evergreen memories which will remain carved in our hearts forever!

Silsila : 

The Yash Chopra classic love story of 1981 'Silsila' starring the most famous Jodi of Bollywood Amitabh Bachchan and Rekha is still loved by everyone… The songs of the movie..Yeh kaha agaye hum…, Rang Barse…and Dekha ek khwaab toh.. still bring goose bumps!

Deewar:

"MERE PAAS BANGLA HAI, GADI HAI , PAISA HAI.........TUMHARE PAAS KYAHAI???????? MERE PAAS MAA HAI" who can forget the iconic dialogue of Amitabh Bachchan & Shashi Kapoor starrer Deewar. Although not a romantic film, this 1975 film was a superduper blockbuster of its era.

Kabhie Kabhie:

Kabhi Kabhi mere dil main yeh khayaal aata hai… The eternal love story of two estranged lovers who’s destinies are intertwined with each other even after getting apart is one of the most loved movies of Bollywood.

Lamhe: A story of a young girl who falls in love with a much older guy who had once loved her mother. The film didn't do well but the performances by the actors were superb and the songs were just excellent!

Darr: When Bollywood was all about being lovey dovey…Yash ji showed a new face of love. Passion, madness, hatred and fear in the form of movie Darr that made SRK over night superstar! His infamous dialogue KKKKKKKK Kiran is still being enacted in TV shows by many!

Dil Toh Pagal Hai: Yash ji loved to experiment with emotions of love. And the musical Dil Toh Pagal Hai can be one of his experimental examples. Love is Friendship is what he taught us! Also he brought the craze of Dance which was not seen as a prestigious art form back then!

Veer Zara: Love is Sacrifice. A story of two lovers belonging to different countries was very subtly described by Yash ji with some melodiously soul touching songs sung by the nightingale of India Lata Mangeshkar.

His latest and unfortunately his last film Jab Tak Hai Jaan  will be releasing soon…We all will be waiting to once again go in the world of YashRaj where dreams come true…where we get to travel to some of the most heavenly and exotic places of the world…feel the warmth of Indian culture and desi families, where our heart beats again telling us to fall in love again and again and again…

Yash Chopra Romance - Teasers Out

Still unnamed (huh?!) but yet the teasers are out for the upcoming Shahrukh Khan - Katrina Kaif starrer. The Yash Chopra romance is what YRF has given the title to the teaser. (view teaser)

The teaser goes through the early 80's and 90's where the magic of Yash Chopra's direction happened and finally comes to 2012 where the movie teaser begins, there are only glimpses of how SRK looks in the movie but for Katrina and Anushka they have ample screen space in the 2 min (approx) teaser. 

The film’s first teaser was shown right before Yash Raj Film’s new release, ‘Ek Tha Tiger’. The teaser also takes the viewers a trip down memory lane showcasing clippings of some brilliant films that the filmmaker has made in the past. 

Although the film is yet to be titled, the trio-SRK,Katrina and Anushka- look splendid in the teaser. The film also brings together AR Rahman and Gulzar together after the Oscar winning work in ‘Slumdog Millionaire’. Rahman and Yash Raj have teamed up for the first time ever for this SRK starrer.

The movie will be releasing on Diwali and hopefully it will have a name at that time! (please!!!)

Although this movie has made the three actors, Shahrukh, Katrina and Anushka great friends already. In a recent interview, Katrina was going gaga on the co-actors. “He (SRK) took extra time to stand & rehearse the lines with me and help me out there. He is extremely helpful.”

Kat then talked about her rapport with Anushka Sharma and revealed that the two, for fun sake, used to make their own movie in their heads by writing alternate scenes! So that rumor aint true Kats? No fun!

Katrina added that Shahrukh Khan personally doesn't shows off his stardom and is extremely cooperative on the sets - does that mean someone else does this ? (Hah!)

We are eagerly waiting to see how the king of romance does it when he meets the Yash Chopra once again!

Anushka : Kats is a cool person to be with

The rumors of cat fights are finally ending as Anushka Sharma has herself come out with a set of praises for her co-actor in the Yash Raj movie with SRK. Anushka Sharma says that she and Katrina were thick friends in no time and were having a good time through the shoots (really?!). She also added that she had great respect for Katrina for her hardwork and the position that she has been able to gain through her Bollywood career.

The news was that Kats and Anushka had a fight at the sets of Yash ji's movie, as both of them wanted the same make up artist, but this was amicably solved by the production house and of-course, being the new darling of YRF, it was Katrina who won the race! This issue was highlighted many a times but this seems to be closing in now as the movie is nearing its completion.

Anushka was at the launch of a cosmetic brand, "We became friends instantly and would hang around together while shooting in London. It was refreshing to work with Katrina. She is very friendly," she said, the moment Katrina, her co-star in Yash Chopra's upcoming untitled film, was mentioned. 

Without further due she added "Katrina is a very hardworking girl. It is not easy to achieve the kind of success she has. I give her all the credit and appreciation for her hard work. She is cool to be with". That put the end to the controversial stories further. 

It might have been a diplomatic decision by the actress but we would never know, that is how carefully they mask it. She skipped over to SRK and says "Shah Rukh is lovely, gracious, and funny. It is always fun when he is on the set. I am so happy to be able to work with him again. I didn't think I'll get the chance," Anushka had made her debut with SRK in Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi.

SRK About his heroines!

Shahrukh Khan on the other hand is all impressed with the new heroines that he is with. He says that the movie has been a learning curve for him to understand how the young actors deal with various situations on screen, "It has been a great pleasure, and an honour to work with both, Anushka and Katrina. And I call it a learning experience because when you work with young actors, they come in with their own new lingo and have completely different ways of doing things or acting out scenes," says SRK.

And he finds that his acting has changed in this movie and the greatest compliment that he received was from Yash Ji himself, “You know, the other day I was at Yash Raj Films and Yashji told me, ‘it’s very different, the manner in which you have acted in this film.’ And I think that’s the biggest compliment an actor can ever get. According to me, this difference is because I have worked with these young actors,” adds in SRK.

“We had a great time working on the film. We have already wrapped up most of the shooting. Only seven-eight days of filming are left, apart from a few sequences from a song,” he says, adding, “Everything’s worked out well, and I hope the audience likes it.”

The movie is said to be a plot similar to the 1973 movie 'Daag' by Yash Chopra, but the details are still not disclosed further. We will be able to see the first of promos pretty soon. The movie has more specials as this will be the first time SRK will work with Katrina and also marks the return of Yash Chopra into direction after the super hit movie 'Veer - Zaara'.

Katrina : Kabir will never write a candy floss role

Katrina Kaif is excited for next week when her movie 'Ek Tha Tiger' is to release on screens. And she says that unlike her past Khan movies, she is not just an ornament to the grand arena - but she has a credible role to handle and she is thankful to the director for having chosen her for the role. The actress who is reaching her decade in the Indian Cinema has evolved from just being a model with crazy Hindi accent to an actress who can do challenging roles and even Prakash Jha found her quite impressive for the role he gave her.

Talking to a daily, Katrina spoke about what she feels being a part of films starring the Khans. She said, “I`m grateful to my makers that I`m not just an ornament in a Khan film. My roles have substance. This can be a tricky situation. One can be tempted to sign a project because you want to work with an actor whom you admire but it is also equally important to have a credible role in such a project. I have been asked whether I`m just going to be an ornament in any of my Khan films. Well I can say that — Salman is holding the fort; but my role has credibility. Kabir will never write a candy floss role for his heroine.”

Katrina who is marked as the instant hit maker by the producers is much in demand and she is currently being requested to be part of every movie project that goes on floor, though many may deny it but she still is the queen of Bollywood when hits are counted in. 

She also added that she has great respect for the Khan trio and is excited to be part of the movies. “As for the Khans — I don`t think anyone can be them. Aamir, Shah Rukh and Salman are phenomenon. To achieve that magnitude of popularity and remain heartthrobs for over two decades is not an easy feat.” adds in Kats who is currently preparing for her shoots for Dhoom 3.

Katrina also praised Aamir Khan for his way of working and she looks forward to it as a learning curve, "I have seen Aamir on the sets. He is very organised and I admire that. Shah Rukh and Salman have their own style and approach which I think everyone knows."

The heroine currently has three YRF movies with three Khans in the lead and the movie with SRK is being directed by Yash Chopra himself  "I'm doing just two songs in my SRK film. Yash Chopra celebrates his women characters. And I am fortunate that I have a fabulous role in my film with Shah Rukh" says Katrina.

The actress who touches the feet of Yash Ji on each day at the start of shoots says that she has utmost respect for the filmmaker and she is glad to be part of his movie. She also clarified that it is not the big bucks that counts to her when choosing movies, instead it is the creative satisfaction that sustains "Well, my choice of films has never been governed by money. That is perhaps why I don't have a very fancy bank account. I'd rather get respect and creative satisfaction through my work than just earn money"

Katrina was talking to TOI in a recent interview. We are awaiting to see the love and action on big screens!

Non Stop Work for Katrina

Katrina Kaif is said to be said doing a pretty tight schedule and it is said that she doesn't find enough time for rest or for family. She has been having too many commitments, be it endorsements or films, she is on pretty tied up schedule. But the good part is that she ensures that none of the crew be delayed due to her unavailability, and this dedication of the actress is now being praised.

The fun part about this is that she has been travelling all around countries hoping from one shoot to another. And this trend started since her shoot in Spain for Zindagi Na Milegi Dobara, the movie had her move to spain and stay there through the shoot. Once this was complete, she was flying to Turkey and Cuba for Ek Tha Tiger, the movie with Salman Khan. She, after completing the two schedules she went on to London for Shah Rukh Khan's movie directed by Yash Chopra. The actress then moved to Malaysia for her third schedule for Ek Tha Tiger, and is now back in London to complete the SRK starrer. The fun part is that she will be flying to Chicago after the schedule for Yash Chopra movie is complete, and that is to be part of Aamir Khan starrer, Dhoom 3. Phewww!! Pretty tough one Kats!

However she is said to be missing her family, even at London, she couldn't meet them as the shooting spot for SRK movie was quite far away from her family house. So she preferred to stay with the crew to be on time for the shoots. It is said that she had even asked her sisters to fly back with her to Mumbai so that she could spend time with her, but unfortunately the endorsement contracts caught her up and she was still busy.

However, a close friend of the star reveals that it’s how Katrina likes her pace to be. “Even if she would take a break, she would find a way to finish off some work or the other. She gets restless if she gets a half a day off,” reveals the friend. “She is usually a very calm person, but hates to sit doing nothing, so we actually wonder what she will do if she ever does take two days off,” adds the friend.

So keep on working Kats and make the good work coming in.

Kats will do ballet dancer in ETT

That is the current news that is coming in, Katrina is said to be playing a Ballet dancer in Ek Tha Tiger. Although the dancing part is not new to her, as she has proven in Sheila Ki Jawaani and Chikni Chameli, this will be altogether a new experience for the actress and she is also said to be shooting the movie at London's Trinity University that is known for its contribution in arts and music.

Finally it gets a title

Finally the name of Yash Raj Films much awaited forthcoming movie starring Shah Rukh Khan, Anushka Sharma and Katrina Kaif has been finalized.

The filmmaker has taken inspiration from his hit movie Silsila for the title. He has decided to name the movie "YEH KAHAN AA GAYE HUM".

Earlier there were rumours that the movie was going to be named London Ishq. Sadly, even weeks after which the movie continued to remain nameless. Later Yash Chopra had more or less finalised that the film would be called Jai but even that did not seem to work out and finally they decided to name the movie Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum.

A source said that, "While there were various options, both Yash Chopra and Aditya Chopra were not happy with them. There had been reports that London Ishq was the title but the makers had denied it."

The source added, "Yash Chopra had more or less finalised that the film would be called Jai but later he did a rethink. He preferred Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum from his controversial film Silsila which starred Amitabh Bachchan with Rekha and Jaya Bachchan."

But the production house's spokesperson said that the title of the film has not yet been locked.

Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum is a title of a song from Yash Chopra's movie Silsila which starred Amitabh Bachchan with Rekha and Jaya Bachchan.

The shooting of the movie is already in progress and the promos are expected to be aired very soon.

Prithviraj bags a YRF film

Buzz is that south superstar Prithviraj has been signed on for another Bollywood project with Yash Raj Films.

Rumour has it that, the actress is the reason why YRF signed the actor. It is said that Rani Mukharjee managed to make things easy Prithvi after putting in a good word about him to Aditya Chopra. The movie will headed by Yash Raj Chopra and Aditya Chopra.

He is currently working with Rani Mukerji in his yet-to-be-released Bollywood film Aiyya which will be directed bye Anurag Kashyap.

Prithiviraj confirmed saying that, "Yes, I am doing a film for Aditya Chopra. It is titled Aurangazeb. The film also stars Arjun Kapoor."

It is said that Arjun will be seen playing the lead role, which means that Prithviraj will play a supporting role. Its quite surprising because Prithviraj is an established name down south and he has played various lead characters so far in his career. A star like him agreeing to play a supporting role and that too with a newbie like Arjun Kapoor is quite suprising. Seems as if he has agreed just because its a YRF offer.

The film titled Aurangzeb will feature Arjun Kapoor in a double role. Prithviraj will be playing a prominent role in the same. The film will be directed by Phir Milenge scribe Athul Sabharwal. The film is set to go on floors by September.

SRK's special gifts for Katrina

When it comes to buying gifts King Khan is known to be really very generous. He is quite famous for showering his favourite co-actresses with gifts. And this time it's Katrina Kaif's turn.

Recently when Katrina Kaif shot in the freezing climes of London, Shahrukh Khan sent his staff to buy designer jackets for the actress and made sure she had enough jackets to keep herself warm. A few days back when Shahrukh Khan came to know that Katrina Kaif had been looking for a special kind of gym bag and he sent her a new gym bag right away on the sets of their Yash Chopra film with a tag attached to it which reads, “Have a great workout!”

Shahrukh Khan made sure that Katrina was well-taken care of during their long outdoor stint abroad.

Both the actors Shahrukh Khan and Katrina Kaif are working together for the first time in a Yash Chopra film which is yet to be titled.

A source working on the sets of the film said that, "He even asked his personal staff to make sure she was comfortable and that her every need was catered to. After a security issue occured during the film's London schedule, SRK asked his bodyguards to be by Kat's side and ensure that she wasn't mobbed by aggressive fans."

It is said that Katrina has even been travelling without security and even moves around in the city without bodyguards, unlike other actresses.

The source added, "She loves talking to him and often asks him for professional as well as personal advice."

Anushka Packs up to be with SRK

As the shooting schedule for Yash Chopra's movie is ending its London schedule, Anushka Sharma is excited to join the crew. She is the second lead female besides Katrina Kaif in the movie. The movie is yet to be officially named, but the titles should be around 'London Love' or 'London Mohobatt'. Anushka Sharma isn't shy to hide her excitement on this and is thrilled to be working with legendary director like Yash Chopra himself.

Anushka, who had launched her career with a Yash Raj Films banner, did Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi with SRK, and considers it as her luck to have started with the King of Bollywood. She says "I didn't think I will get a chance to work with Shah Rukh again after my first film, but I did. So, I am the lucky one. I look forward to it. Mr. Yash Chopra is an institution in himself literally. I guess I would get to learn a lot from that film,", she was speaking to a women's health magazine lately.

"I have not started the shooting yet. I will be joining the crew from May onwards right after my birthday, which is on May 1. So I will start shooting from May 2. I am very excited. I think it is any actor's dream to work with Yash Chopra," she added.

Anushka has also signed up a movie with Vishal Bhardwaj, named 'Matru Ki Bijlee Ka Mandola' which is said to be a different movie compared to the romantic titles that Anushka has associated herself with. The movie will have Imran Khan playing the lead role and is said to have started the shooting already. She has completed her first schedule for the movie and has returned back from Rajkot for Yash Raj movies.

"I am really happy to be working with Vishal Bhardwaj. We just finished a schedule in Rajkot and we are back. He really is a genius director. He knows how much of what you need to use and portray that in his films. For me, it was a little different. The kind of films that I have done was different from this one. I was nervous in the beginning, but I think it's going really well and I am really looking forward to it."

Salman beware!!

Shah Rukh Khan generally holds a charm which seems to grab attention of all ladies around him and also to tag him as one of the most sexy actors still in the business. The latest news is that Katrina Kaif who is currently filming in London along with SRK seems to have fallen for him. The duo is performing for the latest venture by Yash Chopra, whose name is not yet being announced.

It is said that the chemistry between the actors is not limited to the on-screen performances and it is quite evident off screen as well. The couple has been found to be moving around the cafe's and taking snaps of each other. The sources have found SRK posing for Kats while she takes her mobile camera and snaps his candid poses, and the same has been done to Katrina as well, where SRK does the photoshoot. It was also found that SRK borrowed the iconic Yash Chopra cap and had made Katrina pose with the cap on.

The duo was also seen at antics at Southbank, London.

The issue might be blown out if Salman gets to know about it, as he is more conservative when it comes to his fans or loved one's getting bonded with SRK, he takes extreme care that none of his mates get in touch with the friend-turned-foe Shah Rukh Khan. But the alleged lady love of Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif herself is the one who is bonding with the foe and this might be serious!

We will have to wait on what Salman thinks about this!

Kats out of Yash Raj movie?

The news was that Katrina Kaif will be pairing opposite Shah Rukh Khan in the movie which is going to be directed by Yash Chopra, but it seems that the scene has changed over the time and the latest news is that we might see the pairing of SRK and Anushka Sharma again in the upcoming movie.

The news is still unconfirmed by the production house but in a recent interview it was King Khan himself who tried to reveal this fact over to the media. "It's Yash Chopra's directorial venture, Anushka is my leading lady." that were the words from SRK when asked for his romance with Kats.

He did not comment on whether Katrina is out of the math, but we will still be hunting this report, as it seems it might be a dream broken!

Shahrukh waiting on Aamir?

Now that is the buzz in Bollywood, Aamir Khan will decide whether Shah Rukh Khan will sign a new film or not. Its not a irony that we are talking about but it seems that the production team associated with SRK is waiting on Aamir Khan's movie Talaash's release and the success it gains.

The matter spiced up when Gautham Vasudev Menon's movie 'Vettayaadu Vilayadu', a tamil movie has plans of being remade in Hindi and the director has expressed his desire to cast in Shah Rukh Khan as the lead role. The movie speaks about a cop who tries to pursue a serial killer, it is also said that the lead role was suggested by Kamal Hassan, who had played the hero for the original movie. But since playing cop is a new territory for SRK, he is still thinking about it and this is where Aamir Khan's role starts as he is going to release a movie with a similar story line, Talaash.

SRK is currently thinking of doing this slow and it might take a good five months of time before he makes up his mind. Currently he is working on two projects one from Yash Chopra and another from Rohit Shetty.

So we are eagerly waiting on you King!
