Karan Johar remembers father Yash Johar as Dharma productions celerates its 40th anniversary

As Dharma productions complete 40 years since its inception, director Karan Johar pens an emotional letter for his father Yash Johar.

It was 40 years ago that Dharma Productions had come into existence. It was started by a revolutionary man, Yash Johar. The films under the banner caught the attention of the moviegoers with its lavish sets and exotic locations. Dostana, starring Amitabh Bachchan, Shatrughan Sinha, and Zeenat Aman was the first movie to be produced under Dharma Productions. As the production house completes 40 years of journey, his son and filmmaker Karan Johar, remembered him in his post.

The filmmaker uploaded a photo of their time together and wrote, “40 years ago on this date you released your first film DOSTANA and thus began a company that was so close to your heart….all your tremendous karma is in every sunshine ray of @dharmamovies ….all we have done is bask in the glory of your goodwill…. we stand tall because of your teachings and pray every day that you are proud of all of us Papa! Dharma is a result of so many of us who strive every day to spread cheer at the movies…we miss you …but we feel your hand on our head and that gives us the courage to combat and to create ….I love you so much Papa…❤️
