Yash Raj Films Private Limited

This guide to Yash Raj Films in Mumbai is set outside the studio director Yash Chopra built in Andheri West, where he made almost everything from the last decade of his career. It traces his path from a boy in Jalandhar who once rode a train alone to Delhi to see a Raj Kapoor film, to an assistant on his brother's productions, to the founder of his own studio in 1970. A string of flops in the 1980s nearly ended his career before a gentle 1989 romance revived it. Look at the gates of the twenty-acre compound ahead of you.
