Parampara (transl. Tradition) is a 1993 Indian Hindi-language action drama film directed by Yash Chopra. It was the last time Chopra directed a film outside his production house Yash Raj Films. It features an ensemble cast of Sunil Dutt, Vinod Khanna, Aamir Khan, Saif Ali Khan, Neelam Kothari, Raveena Tandon, Ashwini Bhave, Ramya Krishna and Anupam Kher. It marked the Bollywood debuts for both Saif and Ramya.
Parampara released worldwide on 14 May 1993 to high expectations. Upon release, the film received mainly negative reviews from critics who criticised the story, writing, Aamir Khan's acting and dialogues, but praised Chopra's direction and Sunil Dutt's performance. Commercially, the film was a box office failure, grossing only ₹40 million against a budget of ₹30.7 million.
