Aditya Chopra (born 21 May 1971) is an Indian film director, producer, screenwriter, broadcast producer and distributor. His work as a director includes Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1994), Mohabbatein (2000), Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008) and Befikre (2016). He is also the current chairman of India's multi-national film, media and entertainment conglomerate, Yash Raj Films (YRF). Chopra has written and produced a number of critically acclaimed and commercially successful films under the banner like Veer-Zaara (2004), Fanaa (2006), Band Baaja Baaraat (2010), Ek Tha Tiger (2012), Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012), The Dhoom Trilogy (2004, 2006 & 2013) and Sultan (2016). He has tried to break away from typecast and forayed into production of off-beat films in projects like Kabul Express (2006), Chak De! India (2007), Rocket Singh (2009), Dum Laga Ke Haisha (2015) and Fan (2016), that do not necessarily fit into the realms of Masala films. Chopra is also the first Indian film producer to move towards a true film studio model through independent projects helmed by producers, writers and directors under his YRF banner. Major production and post-production work of the company is now carried out of YRF Studios, (co-founded by his ex-wife Payal Khanna and Yash Chopra) where Chopra serves as Chief Executive. As of July 2016, he has produced eight films that have accumulated worldwide gross earnings of more than INR 200 crore (which is the most for an Indian film producer). Apart from emerging as an equitable brand, his company has earned the status of a movie mogul in Indian entertainment. His company is often credited for breaking away from the small business model that was historically used by the Indian film industry and introducing a rigid hub and spoke model by establishing distribution networks across the globe. With a majority of his work being part of the highest grossing Indian films of all time, the company is estimated to be net worth of (as of second quarter of Fiscal 2015) by multiple NSE and BSE analysts, thereby making it the biggest and most successful film production company in the history of Indian cinema. The Directorate of Film Festivals has awarded him the National Award for his contribution to Indian Cinema, on three separate years (1995, 2005, 2007) through the Government of India. Widely regarded as one of the most influential and powerful Executive's in Indian films, Chopra has however remained extremely media-shy, battling constant reports of an alleged dysthymic disorder throughout his three-decade career.
