Yes Boss is a 1997 Indian Hindi-language romantic comedy film directed by Aziz Mirza starring Aditya Pancholi, Shah Rukh Khan and Juhi Chawla in the lead roles. Produced by Ratan Jain, it is based on the film For Love Or Money (1993) starring Michael J Fox.[3]

Yes Boss released on 18 July 1997 and emerged as a commercial success at the box-office, with a worldwide gross of 23 crore (US$2.8 million). The film received mixed-to-positive reviews from critics upon release, with praise for its humor, soundtrack and the performances of the cast, but criticism for its script and pacing.

At the 43rd Filmfare Awards, Yes Boss received 6 nominations, including Best Actor (Khan), Best Actress (Chawla) and Best Villain (Pancholi), and won Best Male Playback Singer (Abhijeet Bhattacharya for "Main Koi Aisa Geet Gaoon")

Yes Boss partially inspired the Malayalam film Junior Senior (2005) and was remade in Tamil as Guru En Aalu (2009). The rights of the film are owned by Khan's production company Red Chillies Entertainment.
