The Romantics, which celebrates late filmmaker Chopra’s legacy, to be screened at Harvard tomorrow; docu-series also included in FTII’s Winter Film Appreciation course
The late Yash Chopra with filmmaker-son Aditya in The Romantics
In the fortnight since The Romantics dropped online, the docu-series has caught the attention of a wide-ranging audience — from movie buffs who grew up on Yash Chopra’s offerings, to aspiring filmmakers. Now, director Smriti Mundhra has double reason to celebrate. The Netflix documentary will be screened for students at Harvard University tomorrow. Not just that, the Film and Television Institute of India (FTII) has decided to include it in their Winter Film Appreciation course.
The four-part series traces the late Yash Chopra’s journey as he brought a new cinematic language to Hindi films, and how it influenced the country’s cultural landscape over the past 50 years. Through the film appreciation course, film students will watch, dissect and understand the filmmaker and his son Aditya Chopra’s brand of cinema.
