Filmmaker Subhash Ghai recently discussed various actors and their characteristics in an interview with Arbaaz Khan on his chat show, The Invincibles. Ghai described Jackie Shroff as a 'bad actor' but cast him in Hero due to his fitting appearance and potential for improvement. Anil Kapoor was labeled as a 'director's actor' who fully surrenders to the director's vision. Shatrughan Sinha was criticized as 'overconfident' and habitually late on set. Ghai also opened up about frequent disagreements with Shah Rukh Khan during the making of Pardes, leading him to avoid working with contemporary stars post-Karz to maintain creative control. Ghai distanced himself from the title of 'Showman' despite his notable contributions to Indian cinema.
