Ravi Chopra was born on September 27, 1946 in India. Chopra started his career assisting his father B.R. Chopra in films like, Dastaan (1972) and Dhund (1973). He also assisted his uncle Yash Chopra in Ittefaq (1969). Eventually, he made his independent directorial debut with Zameer (1975), produced under the family banner, B. R. Films. In 1980, he directed the ensemble disaster film The Burning Train. Other films he directed included Mazdoor (1983), Dehleez (1986) and Kal Ki Awaz (1992). After a decade long hiatus from film direction, he made a comeback with the successful family drama Baghban in 2003. His final film as a director was Baabul in 2006.
Since 2006, the only movies Ravi produced after his father's death was Bhoothnath (2008) and Bhoothnath Returns (2013). Ravi Chopra was served with a legal notice in 2009 by 20th Century Fox, which charged that his upcoming movie Banda Yeh Bindaas Hai blatantly plagiarized the 1992 comedy My Cousin Vinny. Chopra and the production company, Mumbai-based BR Films, denied the charges in court in May 2009; the movie's release was to be delayed until June 2009 by order of the Bombay High Court. Fox sought damages of $1.4 million; this was the first time a Bollywood filmmaker was taken to court by a Hollywood company over the remaking of a film. Fox had given Chopra permission "to make a film loosely based on the Oscar-winning movie" but concluded the final product was a "substantial reproduction" of the original. The film has remained unreleased even after Ravi Chopra's death in 2014.
He died on 12 November 2014 at Breach Candy Hospital in Mumbai where he was admitted few days ago for lung ailment. He was 68 years old, and survived by his wife and two children.
