No one can deny the fact that Yash Raj Films is one of the biggest production houses in India, which has been entertaining audiences for decades. The prestigious banner, instituted by the legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra in 1970, has multiple successful titles to its credit, including Chandni (1989), Lamhe (1991), Darr (1993), Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge (1995), Dil Toh Pagal Hai (1997), and Mohabbatein (2000), to name a few.
The production giant is reportedly gearing up to showcase its new titles to mark the 50th anniversary of its launch. According to reports, the team at YRF is set to make an official announcement of its new titles very soon.
The production house is presently working on a series of high-profile films that star some of the biggest names from showbiz. Their much-talked-about film Pathan, which started rolling a couple of weeks ago, has Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, and John Abraham on its primary cast. Their next Tiger 3 marks the return of Salman Khan and Katrina Kaif as Tiger and Zoya respectively.
Spilling some more beans on the YRF Project 50, a trade source informs a publication, “A special showreel is being prepared for the big screen to celebrate the YRF films till date, and in the same showreel, announce their slate of upcoming films, which includes films with Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Shah Rukh Khan, Deepika Padukone, John Abraham, Ajay Devgn, and Vicky Kaushal, among others. It will be a grand video celebrating cinema, and some visuals from these forthcoming films are also expected.”
The source goes on to add, “Apart from the announcement of fresh films, one can expect an update on the existing films like Prithviraj, Jayeshbhai Jordaar and Shamshera in the same showreel.”

Mukerji parts ways with YRF’s Dhoom 4 after reported creative disagreements.
Decision said to be amicable, with Aditya Chopra and Ranbir Kapoor supportive.
Director shifts focus to Brahmastra: Part Two – Dev, expected to begin filming in 2026.
Filmmaker steps away from YRF’s action franchise
Filmmaker Ayan Mukerji has stepped away from Yash Raj Films’ (YRF) highly anticipated action project Dhoom 4, reportedly due to creative differences. According to Bollywood Hungama, Mukerji’s vision for the film did not align with the studio’s direction, prompting him to withdraw from the project.
Mukerji, who was in discussions to direct the next instalment of the hit franchise—expected to star Ranbir Kapoor—was said to have limited control over the script, which was reportedly written by Shridhar Raghavan. The director, best known for Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani and Brahmastra, was keen on shaping the film creatively rather than simply executing an existing plan.
A source quoted in the report said, “Ayan didn’t have much say in the screenplay and didn’t want to embark on another journey of just execution.”
Amicable parting after discussions with Aditya Chopra
Before stepping away, Mukerji is believed to have held several discussions with YRF head Aditya Chopra and actor Ranbir Kapoor. Both reportedly supported his decision, with insiders describing the split as “completely amicable.”
The director’s departure does not mark the end of Dhoom 4, as YRF plans to continue with the project under a new director. The studio may also reconsider casting options, despite earlier reports that Ranbir Kapoor had set aside dates for the film.
Focus returns to the Brahmastra universe
Following his exit from Dhoom 4, Mukerji has shifted attention back to his passion project—the Brahmastra series. The filmmaker is currently developing Brahmastra: Part Two – Dev, the sequel to the 2022 fantasy epic.
The film, initially expected to begin production earlier, is now likely to go on floors in 2026. Sources suggest Mukerji intends to expand the Astraverse with more depth in storytelling, combining elements of mythology, drama, and spectacle.
