Shiamak Davar shares wishes for ‘Guiding Light’ Yash Chopra on his birth anniversary

On September 26th, we celebrated the birth anniversary of one of Bollywood's greatest artists, the iconic Yash Chopra. Stars across Bollywood have paid tribute to the legend, with renowned choreographer Shiamak Davar being among them.

In his Instagram post, Shaimak paid tribute to his 'Guiding Light' by saying :

"Dear Yash Uncle,
On your birth anniversary today, I cherish the love and gratitude for everything you did for me.
Your unwavering belief in my talent and the opportunities you provided have left an indelible mark.
You're forever in my heart❤ ❤ ❤️❤️"

Shiamak Davar has always been vocal about the role Yash Chopra, whom he lovingly calls 'Yash Uncle', has played in his career. The two had a mutual love for art and cinema, and Yash Chopra was primarily responsible for Shiamak Davar being a part of the classic hit 'Dil Toh Pagal Hai'.

In previous interviews, Shiamak has spoken about 'Yash Uncle', how much faith he had in Shiamak, how he was a guiding light in the choreographer's early days and how he continued to be a source of encouragement and inspiration long after Shiamak established himself in the industry.

The mark left by Yash Chopra, not only on the industry, but also on Shiamak is evident through the love showered in this post, and how the choreographer continues to pay tribute to 'Yash Uncle' long after his passing.
