Most men would want to someday fit into their father’s shoes. But Aditya Chopra has not just stepped in but also gone steps ahead. Sources from the sets of Yash Chopra’s directorial comeback starring Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma reveal that the younger Chopra has not only been keeping a tab on the production but also helping his father direct the romantic scenes in the film. According to the source, Adi was almost like his father’s chief assistant on the sets. “When love scenes were being shot, Adi took over the direction. When Yashji created the love scenes between Rajesh Khanna and Sharmila Tagore in ‘Daag’ or Amitabh Bachchan and Parveen Babi in ‘Deewar’, he was closer to the actors’ age. By the time, ‘Dil To Pagal Hai’ came around, Yashji was more comfortable with Adi directing the romantic sequences. And thus, even in this film, he has let Adi take over the mush part. So, while the dramatic scenes bear Yashji’s style the romantic scenes between Shah Rukh and Katrina are heavily reminiscent of Adi’s ‘Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge’,” said the source. When contacted, Katrina too seemed happy with the way the love scenes have thus shaped up. “I’d like to think Shah Rukh and I share the same on-screen chemistry as he did with Kajol and Madhuri. I’ve learnt a lot by simply observing him especially in the romantic sequences.” Shah Rukh asked Katrina to ease up for the romantic scenes by being the way Kajol was in DDLJ. Well, we sure hope that the DDLJ magic works wonders for this film as well.
