Legendary filmmaker Yash Chopra may not be around anymore but his widow Pamela is determined to keep his legacy alive

Come September 27, it will mark the late director's first birthday after his demise. Sources say Pamela is hoping to celebrate the day in a grand way.

Last year, to mark Chopra's 80th birthday, a gala bash was hosted at his studio in Andheri that saw Bollywood biggies, including Shah Rukh Khan, pouring in to wish the birthday boy. Details of this year's event are being guarded fiercely.

Says our source, `Big plans are being drawn up to make the day special. Yashji considered his team as his extended family. Pamelaji is taking personal interest in the planning. She is making sure that every little detail is taken care of.`


Insiders say the matriarch even called upon her two sons, Aditya and Uday, to plan the event. The bash will most probably be held at the Andheri studio.
