Industry insiders call Pamela the 'muse' of Yash Chopra. She was an active collaborator in her husband's creative pursuits. She was recently seen in the Netflix documentary 'The Romantics', in which, she talked about her husband's way of filmmaking and how Yash Raj Studio evolved over the years.

Pamela used to sing well and lent her voice in many of Yash Chopra's films. One of her most famous songs was 'Main Sasural Nahi Jaungi' (Chandni) and 'Ghar Aaja Pardesi' (Dilwale Dulhaniya Le Jayenge).
Pamela also wrote the story of Amitabh Bachchan and Rakhee starrer 'Kabhi Kabhie' and was credited as the designer for the 1981 release 'Silsila.'
The late filmmaker, in many of his interviews, used to talk about his wife's creative inputs into his films. The couple was featured in the song 'Ek Duje Ke Vaaste' from the Yash Chopra blockbuster 'Dil To Pagal Hai', which released in 1997. She even produced films independently. (ANI)
