Every time he sat on the director's chair, he weaved magic on screen. He taught us the meaning of limitless, unconditional love. In his career spanning over 50 films, the late Yash Chopra succeeded in changing the very definition of love, and turned clichéd stories into epic sagas.
In his films, he broke barriers, transcended boundaries, and rendered stereotypes useless, making everyone believe that nothing can really come in the way of "true love". From snow-capped mountains to amazing locations to characters and stories which transported us into a different world altogether, Yash Chopra's films had it all.
