Only statement 3 is true: Dilip Kumar (1994), Raj Kapoor (1987) and Dev Anand (2002) have all received the Dadasaheb Phalke Award. Statement 1 is wrong because by 2003–04 the Children’s Film Society, India was chaired by Raveena Tandon, while Hema Malini had recently demitted the NFDC chair. Statement 2 is wrong—Yash Chopra never served as Chairperson of the Central Board of Film Certification; in 2004 the post was held by Anupam Kher (followed by Sharmila Tagore).
