The Romantics

It was really good to see Aditya Chopra talking, the pioneer of Hindi cinema, and Indian cinema as well, who bought us DDLJ, Dhoom, all these time he has been at the forefront of the trajectory of the industry itself, and I think his contribution is huge as a creative producer of YRF than the director, IDK, if that's correct because DDLJ still running in theatres is not a small feat and this kinda feat is never achieved by any filmmaker at all, he's the only kind. The film running in north India is understandable but re-releases of it running in other non-Hindi speaking states is definitely an outlier and no other film even comes closer to this kinda achievement.

On favouritism/nepotism: after seeing him talk for the first time, it feels like Aditya Chopra hasn't been part of that usual group of Bollywood folks that has triggered this whole nepotism thing. 2 parts of his talk: 1. Saying that he doesn't want to get into that group that make films just to get awards and competing for awards wasn't for him, making the best films was only his goals; 2. When he said that he introduced Ranveer Singh just because he did well in his first audition and how he always relates to the common audience as he himself is an avid film goer and does so every Friday which in itself shows his passion for cinema as a whole.

Overall, it's a documentary where most Bollywood fraternities talk and it slightly gave a feeling that this documentary itself was made & released now to make people feel that there's no nepotism in Bollywood and how these people even hate saying Bollywood itself, a more like a brain-washer for the common audience but just with a little understanding of the current pathetic state of Hindi film industry, one could easily understand that this is again a gimmick by these people to instate the confidence in Bollywood but these pricks aren't still getting the point that nothing matters in the end except making good films and if they start doing it again, everything's gonna fall in place again, it's damn so simple but these people's brains are so fried out of popularity that they're not able to see/imagine this simple picture of their mind, god bless them.

But, if you're still reading to see if you should watch this documentary or not, I'd say you must if you're following Indian Cinema since this is probably the first time the pioneer of Indian Cinema, Aditya Chopra has opened himself up and its really good to see him take us through his journey of film making and his passion for Cinema is just fascinating to see.

This is the first time i am writing a review. The Romantics got me to it, Its a roller coaster ride, it is about INDIAN CINEMA, I Cried, I Laughed, I Clapped , I Loved It from Bottom of My Heart . I Truly Wish YRF should get back All the Love What They Have Given to INDIAN Cinema. I Am a SRK fan. Now i m YRF FAN too, After finishing all 4 episodes in 1 go, one will feel to go bck and watch all movies again. Mr Aditya Chopra was highlight..I wish they had more episodes. I would love to watch more of BTS and View on all movies..This is truly amazing what they have put together..Worth the Watch ..

The Romantics Is Absolutely Beautiful Documentary And Showcases The True Elements Of Romance, Drama, The Indian Culture Its Perfect Show Dedicated to the Late Great Yash Chopra Ji who has in the past made cult classic evergreen brilliant movies in the early 70s to 80s to 90s and also in the 2000s decade, it also shows the journey when he made his first film in the 1959 and how his older brother also made the movies Aswell. Aditya Chopra Was Brilliant And When He Started Talking It Was simply superb How He Tells his journey of how he became a director and worked with his father he was the only one who had carried out his father legacy and always supported him. SRK was amazing and his journey of being a film star was superb and how he worked with Yash Chopra Darr Movie. Uday Chopra Was Also Superb.

Overall I Would Give This A 4.5 to 5 stars A Must Watch Documentary And Its An Beautiful Fantastic Documentary Dedicating To Yash Chopra Legacy From 1959 to 2012 He will always be Remembered with Kabhi Kabhi, Silsila, Chandni, Kabhi Kabhi, Darr, DDLJ, Dil To Pagal Hai, Mohabbatein, Veer Zaara, Dhoom, Hum Tum, Bunty Aur Babli, Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi, Jab Tak Hain Jaan,

The Romantics is a film lover's delight. If you love cinema in general, you'll like this comprehensive documentary on filmmaking by the leading filmmakers of our country. There's so much to unpack and unravel here. Kudos to its makers and Netflix too.

It's a fitting tribute to an all time great filmmaker, Yash Chopra. But my biggest take from it has to be the man, the myth, the legend, Aditya Chopra. He's a revelation in himself. One of the finest minds of modern day cinema. A must watch for that alone.

It's an eye opener on how the biggest Indian film studio came into being. It reflects on its glory and the legacy it'll leave behind for generations to come.

Docuseries review: The Romantics streaming on Netflix #sanjuzzreviews #Netflix #netflixindia #TheRomantics #YashChopra #YRF

This 4 part docuseries traces the journey of Yash Chopra as a larger than life director, who transformed Indian Cinema forever.

An inspiring tale of a visionary who broke away from the shadow of his illustrious elder brother BR Chopra, carving out his own niche in the industry, breaking pre-existing norms, achieving unparalleled success & leaving behind his everlasting legacy for all Indians to feel proud about.

It talks about his passion for making films, not always playing to the gallery, taking risks at times & putting up a brave face when the gamble didn't pay off (Silsila, Lamhe).

It also talks ABT his dream of putting Bollywood on the world map, having his own studio and finally handing over the baton to the next generation ( Adi & Uday) to carry his legacy forward.

With around 35 celebrities ( Amitabh, SRK, Anil Kapoor, Rani Mukerji Madhuri Dixit etc ) & friends lending their insights into the life of this enigmatic filmmaker, this one is definitely a must watch for Bollywood afficianado's !

Go for it ... Adios 🙂!!
