Renowned filmmaker Subhash Ghai shared that there are five types of actors. He stated that there are non-actors and bad actors. Ghai further asserted that Jackie Shroff was a bad actor and overconfident was Shatrughan Sinha. For the unversed, the filmmaker worked with Jackie Shroff in the 1989 film Ram Lakhan which also featured Anil Kapoor. On the other hand, he worked with Shatrughan Sinha in the 1976 movie Kalicharan and in the 1978 movie Vishwanath. Subhash Ghai also shared his working experience with Shah Rukh Khan.
In a chat with Arbaaz Khan for his chat show The Invincibles Series season 2, Subhash Ghai said “Paanch kism ke actor hote hai sir. Ek hota hai non-actor, aur ek hota hai bad actor (There are five types of actors, one is non-actor and another is bad actor). Bad actor was Jackie Shroff. Actor is Anil Kapoor... joh overconfident the who hamesha Shatrughan Sinha the. Shatrughan ka sabse bada problem tha ki woh time pe kabhi nahi pahuchta tha (Overconfident actor was Shatrughan; his biggest issue was that he was never on time).”
He added, “Jaise maine Pardes mein Shah Rukh ke saath kaam kiya, uska aur mera man-mutav chalta rehta tha, tu-tu main-main chalti rahti thi... phir Karz (1980) ke baad maine socha jitney bhi current stars hai unke saath picture nahi banani hai agar picture asli banani hai (I used to have tiffs with Shah Rukh during Pardes. After Karz I thought I will not work with current stars if I want to make a good film).”
Subhash Ghai is known for his hit movies like Khal Nayak, Pardes, Taal, Ram Lakhan, Saudagar, Kaanchi, Karz, Yuvvraaj, Trimurti, Gautam Govinda, 36 China Town, Apna Sapna Money Money and Aitraaz to name a few.
