Along with the statement, he posted a video remembering his father Yash Johar.  YJF pays tribute to the ethos of Yash Johar. He was a man who believed in giving back to the people of the entertainment industry. Naturally a kind and empathetic person, he understood that being in the movie business was hard, which is why he was always ready to help, no matter how big or small the problem was… financial or emotional. His unconditional support is etched in the memory of countless people, and it is this goodwill that we are carrying forward with YJF.

The Yash Johar Foundation (YJF) has been set up with the aim to improve the quality of life for people in the Indian entertainment industry and will work towards offering better access to opportunities in education, health & building financial stability.
