Yash Chopra's Fax from Switzerland Moved Darr Writer

Javed Siddiqi, the dialogue writer for the enduring film Darr, recently reminisced about his interactions with the late filmmaker Yash Chopra. Siddiqi shared that Chopra deeply respected writers, citing an instance where Chopra faxed script revisions from Switzerland during the film's shoot, a gesture that greatly moved him.

Their professional relationship was also enriched by a shared passion for the Urdu language. Siddiqi mentioned that Chopra predominantly communicated in Urdu and English, and they often discussed classic Urdu literature. This mutual literary background fostered a strong personal bond between them.
