Yash Chopra's visions in white
Yash Chopra's fondness for the colour white is no secret.
Known to depict romance like a scenic dream and his leading lady as poetry in motion, almost every single creation from the late filmmaker features the purest of all shades in its most delicate form.
The legendary director's last film Jab Tak Hai Jaan is ready to hit the screens on November 13. And it too highlights Chopra's trademark virtue in Katrina Kaif's pristine wardrobe.
Here's a look at some of his other memorable visions in white.
Veer-Zaara
In the opening credits itself; Preity Zinta makes her ravishing presence felt in creamy white churidar kurta teamed with dozens of silver bangles and other trinkets.
Dil To Pagal Hai
Madhuri Dixit travels from Shah Rukh Khan's imagination to celluloid reality to embody Yash Chopra's drop dead gorgeous maiden in Dil To Pagal Hai.
Darr
Lamhe
Chandni
Faasle
Although Chopra's multi-starrer featuring the likes of Sunil Dutt, Rekha, Farookh Shaikh and Deepti Naval was a flop, the imagery of the lovely Farah Naaz in crisp white churidars stays on.
Silsila
Playing an exquisite muse to Amitabh Bachchan's soulful poetry is Rekha in one of the most contentious films of her career. Of course her name is Chandni and white seems to be her favourite colour as well.
Kabhi Kabhie
Both Raakhee and Neetu Singh take turns to bask in the lady-in-white limelight as the story progresses to focus on two different generations in Chopra's most definite take on relationships, Kabhi Kabhie.
