Showdown between Yash and Aditya Chopra

Bollywood's most powerful family is on the verge of breaking up. If one is to rely on the reports doing the rounds, there has been a showdown between Yash Chopra and his son Aditya. The trigger is Aditya's impending divorce from his wife Payal. The couple was married in 2001 and trouble in the marriage began soon after with Aditya moving out of home for a while and then beginning divorce proceedings. Payal is the daughter of close family friends.

According top sources, the father and son, Yash and Aditya, have stopped speaking to each other for a while now, but matters really took a turn for the worst when Aditya pressed ahead with the divorce proceedings. An upset Yash Chopra is believed to have threatened to disinherit him. At stake here is the Rs 1000 crore plus Yashraj empire. While the business is currently run by Aditya, who is the brain behind the current stature of Yashraj Films, Yash Chopra is still the head. A fallout between the two will definitely impact the clout they enjoy in Bollywood. This is definitely the mother of all big fights!
