What
is
the
Showman
making
next?
The
film-maker
subhash
ghai,
who
has
delivered
a
number
of
hits,
super
hits
and
blockbusters
over
the
past
few
decades,
is
waiting
to
start
his
next
venture.
There's
talk
that
Ghai's
immediate
film
will
be
the
remake
of
his
yesteryear
hit
Hero,
which
made
Jackie
Shroff
and
Meenakshi
Seshadhri
overnight
sensations.
Reportedly,
the
remake
of
Hero
will
star
Jackie's
son
Tiger
in
the
same
role
his
father
essayed
in
the
original.
But
Ghai
denies
that
he
is
remaking
Hero.
"How
can
I
direct
the
same
film
I
made
three
decades
ago?
Let
someone
young
handle
this," the
Showman
tells
me.
So
what
is
he
making
next?
"Oh,
I
am
keen
to
make
a
lavish,
big-budget
film
this
time.
It
would
be
a
masala
film
for
sure.
I've
realised
that
the
makers
keep
experimenting
in
film
after
film,
perhaps
wanting
to
change
with
the
fast-changing
times,
but
some
things
-
a
good
commercial
film
-
always
remains
a
favourite,
it
never
goes
out
of
fashion,"
Ghai
states.
The
veteran,
who
has
worked
with
some
of
the
biggest
names
in
the
business,
is
still
working
on
the
script
of
the
film.
Let's
hope
Ghai
bounces
back
with
renewed
vigour
this
time!
