SRK coaxes Aditya Chopra to take late Yash Chopra's tradition
- IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,September 10 2014]
Not many might know that there was a long standing tradition at Yash Raj Films where late filmmaking legend Yash Chopra used to give the first clap for every film.
After his death, his son Aditya Chopra took over all his responsibilities except this one. He did not want to follow the first clap custom. So it was decided that the senior most person present on the set would give the clap.
However, Aditya Chopra will now continue his father's tradition.
Our sources revealed that on the insistence of Maneesh Sharma and Shah Rukh Khan on the sets of YRF's 'Fan', Aditya Chopra agreed to take over the ritual.
Incidentally this is Shah Rukh's first film with YRF with Yash Chopra not around.
Henceforth, Aditya Chopra is going to give the first clap for every film of the production house.
