Yash Chopra passed into the mist of time this evening, around 1730 h, due to a multiple organ failure after contracting the dreaded dengue fever. His passing away is a big loss to the Hindi film world. His last film, slated for a Deepavali release, this year, is named 'Jab Tak Hai Jaan'. Seen against today's happenings, it sounds so prophetic. Was Yashji aware that his end was coming?
I'd seen his last interview with Shah Rukh Khan. I thought that somewhere during the course of that conversation, he sounded as though the moment of reckoning had come about for him and he was ready to move on.
Yash Chopra, the master craftsman, has given us a lot of good Hindi films during his lifetime. I've seen the films Waqt, Deewar, Trishul , Silsila, Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge and Veer Zaara more than once and will not miss out a chance to see them yet again. His films had a way of rocking one's sensibilities and tame them to submission and accept them wholeheartedly. The 'feel good' factor was amply evident!
RIP Yashji. My humble bow to a fantastic film maker. Here's wishing that god gives his family the strength to tide over their huge loss.
