Jab Tak Hai Jaan (2012)

Jab Tak Hai Jaan (transl. As Long as I Live), abbreviated as JTHJ, is a 2012 Indian Hindi-language romantic drama film written by Aditya Chopra and directed by Yash Chopra. Produced by Yash Raj Films, the film stars Shah Rukh Khan as Samar Anand, a bomb disposal expert for the Indian Army, whose diary falls into the hands of Akira Rai, a documentary filmmaker (Anushka Sharma). It recounts his time as a struggling immigrant in London and whirlwind romance with Meera Thappar (Katrina Kaif).

Jab Tak Hai Jaan marked Chopra's fourth film to feature Khan in the lead role, and the second collaboration between Khan and Sharma, following Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi (2008), which was the debut film of Sharma. The film also marked the first collaboration between Khan and Kaif. Chopra made his return to direction after Veer-Zaara (2004). It was also the posthumous film of Chopra, who died in October 2012, prior to the film's release.

Released during the six-day Diwali weekend beginning on 13 November 2012, Jab Tak Hai Jaan received positive reviews from critics who praised Chopra's direction and the performances of Khan and Sharma, but criticised the predictable plot. The film earned ₹235.66 crore (US$28 million) worldwide and emerged as one of the year's top-earning films. It became the 3rd highest-grossing Bollywood film overseas at that time after 3 Idiots (2009) and My Name Is Khan (2010).

At the 58th Filmfare Awards, the film received 7 nominations, including Best Actor (Khan), and won 4 awards, including Best Supporting Actress (Sharma) and Best Lyricist (Gulzar for "Challa").
