The film Hero revolved around a hitman who traces his way back to the track of humanity after falling in love with a girl. Though the film’s idea may sound very typical, Ghai’s well-written characters undergoing a change made it a complete treat for the viewers. The film was high on action, drama, and romance – a perfect masala entertainer.

On the verge of its release, Khalnayak was the only Subhash Ghai project that was surrounded by tons of controversies. Quite on the similar lines of Hero, this 1993 film was a major hit at the box office. Sanjay Dutt playing a notorious criminal Ballu had an interesting character arc throughout the story which ultimately did justice to the title of the film.

Bringing Gulzar’s magical words and AR Rahman’s scintillating music together, Subhash Ghai’s Yuvvraaj was nothing less than an epic musical romance. While music is at the plot’s heart, the family drama subtly makes it an interesting watch. Starring Salman Khan, Katrina Kaif, Anil Kapoor, and Zayed Khan, Yuvvraaj is a must-watch if you haven’t yet.

The weaving love triangle at its best, Subhash Ghai’s Taal was a metaphoric story that stood out on its slow-paced drama beautifully capturing each and every emotion through the medium of music. The film features Anil Kapoor, Aishwarya Rai Bachchan, and Akshay Khanna in pivotal roles. It was Ghai’s redefining take on love triangles and relationships that made Taal a great movie experience.
Each of these seven movies will give you a gist of Subhash Ghai’s style of filmmaking. We wish the “Showman” a very Happy Birthday.
