Throwback; Time when Yash Chopra schooled Shah Rukh Khan

An old video of legendary director Yash Chopra in conversation with Shah Rukh Khan is going viral again. In the old video clip, Yash Chopra is seen schooling SRK. He had directed the actor in movies Darr, Dil To Pagal Hai, Veer-Zaara.

The legendary filmmaker breathed his last on 21 October 2012.

In the video, the filmmaker is seen telling SRK, “he is one actor whom he has met in 20 years, and never asked about the story of any of his films. You have always said, Adi has written, you are directing? I’ll do. SRK never asked about how much money he is going to get for the film.”

In the video Yash Chopra also says to SRK, “You have never taken a penny from me during the production of any of my films. Whatever I gave you in the last week before the film’s release, you would call me and say, ‘I think you have given a little bit more to me.’ I remember we were making a film, and I called you angrily and told you that, ‘I’m about to start the film, why are you missing in action? I understand you must be busy but we should meet once before the film goes on floor.” SRK’s last film with Yash Chopra was “Jab Tak Hai Jaan”. Yash Chopra says in the video,

“SRK then said, Let’s settle this once and for all. Why shall I meet you? I won’t listen to the story from you, whatever money you would give to me, I’ll accept.

Both of us have an understanding, and once I start working on your film, I won’t work on any other film until your film is completed.” Last conversation between the legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra and Shah Rukh Khan.
