Filmmaker Yash Chopra is one of the most celebrated personalities in the Hindi cinema. The man is remembered not only for his work but also for his relationships and camaraderie with the actors. In a recent blog, superstar Amitabh Bachchan wrote a note about remembering the enigma.

In his blog, Amitabh Bachchan remembered the time he shot for 'Kaala Pathar' with the ace filmmaker and wrote, "Working with Yash-ji was always a picnic... Informal, relaxed and filed with humour and eating delicious food. He encouraged the families of artists to accompany them at the shoot destination... Whether it was Pune or Kashmir or Amsterdam or Delhi, it was always the same."

The actor further added, "Antakshari was the favourite, along with dumb charades... Haha... What wonderful moments shared."

"After pack up, we would all migrate to the Dal Lake, where several ‘dongas' - boat platforms - would be tied together to make one floating large boat and all of us would spend the evening, moving about in the lake, eating, singing... Music by local folk musicians, until the late hours. Now all forgotten... And in memories... Sad. Time waits for no one... And neither must we," reminisced the actor as he ended his blog on an emotional note.
