Yash Chopra
Producer, director, screenwriter
Yash Chopra was born 27 September 1932 year. Yash Chopra began his career as an assistant director to I. S. Johar and elder brother, B.R. Chopra. He made his directorial debut with Dhool Ka Phool in 1959, a melodrama about illegitimacy, and followed it with the social dra-ma Dharmputra(1961). Encouraged by the success of both films, the Chopra brothers made several more movies together during the late fifties and sixties. Chopra rose to prominence after his commercially and critically successful drama, Waqt (1965), which pioneered the concept of ensemble casts in Bollywood. In 1971, Chopra founded his own production company, Yash Raj Films, and launched it with Daag (1973), a successful melodrama about a polygamous man. The name Yash Raj was formed with names standing for Yash and Raj his middle name. His success continued in the seven-ties, with some of Indian cinema's most successful and iconic films, including the action thriller Deewar(1975), which established Amitabh Bachchan as the leading actor in Bollywood; the ro-mantic drama Kabhie Kabhie (1976) and Trishul (1978).
