"You have to prove that you're good once again. You're only as good as your last film, " Chopra said in a brief acceptance speech.

Chopra's production house Yash Raj Films also had a strong presence at PIFF considering his popular films, including "Lamhe", "Dhoom 2", "Rab Ne Bana Di Jodi" and "New York", were showcased in a retrospective section at the fest.
