Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s elder brother and producer Vir Chopra is no more. 

Confirming the news of his demise, Vidhu’s wife and film critic Anupama Chopra penned an emotional note in his memory. She wrote- “Vinod always said that Vir was his better version - nice to a fault (no ma-behen gaalis), highly educated (PhD from London School of Economics) and measured instead of volatile. They looked so alike that when VC and I first got married, people would congratulate Vir. Forever now, his memory remains our blessing."
