Filmmaker Kabir Khan recently shared that he once believed Aditya Chopra, head of Yash Raj Films, did not exist. He thought Chopra was a fictional character created by Yash Chopra to intimidate others in the industry. Khan recalled that he avoided approaching YRF for his debut film, Kabul Express, due to this belief. He eventually received a call from YRF in 2004, leading to a meeting with Chopra, who expressed interest in Khan's script. Khan has since directed several successful films, including Ek Tha Tiger and Bajrangi Bhaijaan. His latest project is Chandu Champion, a sports biopic featuring Kartik Aaryan.
