INDIA: The much-anticipated Netflix docuseries “The Romantics” is officially available on the digital platform. Within 48 hours of its release, the series got itself placed on the trending list.
The documentary pays tribute to the legacy of Yash Chopra, marking YRF’s contribution to the cultural impact on India and Indians for the past 50 years.
The multi-starrer film brought the biggest superstars of the Bollywood industry together in one place. From Amitabh Bachchan to Ranbir Kapoor to Ranveer Singh, from Rani Mukerji to Hrithik Roshan, and from Katrina Kaif to Anushka Sharma, all the stars spoke about the mega production house.
However, the one major attraction to the movie is the presence of the three Khans of the glamour industry. The dream comes true moment for Khan fans as Aamir Khan, Salman Khan, and Shah Rukh Khan share screen space in the series.
The special series is helmed by none other than Oscar and Emmy-nominated filmmaker Smriti Mundhra, who has delivered masterpieces on the OTT platform like Indian Matchmaking and the Never Have I Ever franchise.
The director featured 35 leading actresses from the industry, who have been a major part of the YRF in its 50 glorious years. Aditya Chopra, the reclusive head of the banner, was also coaxed into recording his first on-camera interview for “The Romantics.”
When Mundhra was asked about the film and working together with the three Khans, she went on saying, “While it’s a pure coincidence that the three Khans — SRK, Salman, and Aamir — appear together for the first time in The Romantics, in retrospect it makes sense.”
“All three of these legends have shared an intimate professional and personal relationship with Yash Chopra and Aditya Chopra, and for that reason, they were each on my list of hopeful interviews. Besides being huge stars, they are also thought leaders of Indian cinema, and having them in The Romantics added so much insight to the series,” Mundra added.
