Karmas Child By Ghai, Subhash

Known for the grandeur and flamboyance of his films, Subhash Ghai is a legend. Between 1976 and 1999, he made fifteen films, eleven of which - including Kalicharan, Vidhaata, Hero, Karma, Ram Lakhan, Saudagar, Khalnayak and Taal - were blockbusters. Known for his ambitious, innovative thinking and the strong stories and memorable music of his movies, Ghai helmed dream-cast multistarrers and also made films with rank newcomers; he brought the crowds flocking back to theatres when video piracy was at its peak, was the first in India to release the music of a film on audio CD, and was a pioneer in taking Hindi cinema to global markets. He is a self-made man who rose to dizzying heights, proving the saying that destinies are created - and destroyed - every day in the Mumbai film industry.
