Jab Tak Hai Jaan breaks into the Rs. 100cr. mark

After the successful run of Salman Khan’s films that went into the Rs. 100cr. mark, it was Jab Tak Hai Jaan that broke the same milestone. It took just 11 days for the domestic earnings to reach that mark. Jab Tak Hai Jaan features lead actors like Shah Rukh Khan, Katrina Kaif along with Anushka Sharma.

The film was produced at a budget of around Rs. 50 crores. And earning twice the amount only from India is indeed heartening. However, as far as the overall earnings are concerned, Rs. 100 crores were earned within six days only, which also included earnings from overseas as well. The film was released on the day of Diwali – the 13th of this month.

There were a couple of reasons, in fact more, why the film was such a popular production from the YRF house. Firstly, it was the last directorial venture of the late Yash Chopra; secondly, he had taken to direction after as many as eight years since he had made Veer-Zaara.

The final reason and probably the most important of them all, was that the director had roped in Shah Rukh Khan. And it was also the first ever film for SRK along with Katrina Kaif.

 Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif will be playing the lead role in the upcoming Yash Raj film. The film is still untitled. It will be the first time that Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif will be seen as a leading pair on the silver screen. Yash Chopra will be directing this film.
It will be Yash Chopra’s first directorial venture in as many as seven years. His last film as a director was way back in the year 2004 which was titled Veer Zaara. The film that he will be directing now will be certainly be worth looking up to as there are big names associated with the film.
It is not only the protagonists, Shah Rukh Khan and Katrina Kaif. But the lyrics and the music are also associated with bigger names. The lyrics have been written by Gulzar while the music has been scored by none other than A R Rehman. Anushka Sharma of the Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi fame will also be a part of the film.
Yash Copra initially was skeptical about directing a movie which features a lot of young talent like Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma. However, the confidence in the grand old man, who is nearing 80 years, is worth looking up to.
