"Bahut ho gaya abhi. My heart says bahut ho gaya abhi. I will not direct any other film after 'Jab Tak Hain Jaan'. I have got lot of love in all these years. I think now the time has come to pay back. I want to help directors, actors, technicians who I could not help all these years," said Yash Chopra.
"This industry has given me so much. I am very much happy and satisfied with the film. This film has turned out better than my expectation. I don't want to do anything else. My wife has been complaining a lot. I want to make her happy and enjoy my life," he said. Shahrukh Khan, who has been an integral part of Yash Raj Films for the past 20 years and stars in "Jab Tak Hai Jaan" with Katrina Kaif and Anushka Sharma, said he was saddened by Chopra's decision.

We are happy that we are part of that film which made you happy. "
