The Ghai-Nagesh rift

  • IndiaGlitz, [Wednesday,February 13 2008]

Around two years back Subash Ghai launched Mukta Searchlight by assigning directorial reigns to director Nagesh Kukunoor and one must admit Nagesh did a good job. Nagesh made a film that inspired many to believe and thus launched the much talented Shreyas Talpade with ‘Iqbal’.

Since then Ghai has been raving about Nagesh and has signed him up for over 3 more films which includes Bombay to Bangkok, Aashayein with John Abraham and another untitled venture. The grapevine now is that Ghai might reconsider assigning Nagesh any further projects. It seems that Ghai is so upset with Nagesh for creating such a mess out of Bombay to Bangkok that he refused to see the film and even shunned the premiere.

Looks like Nagesh will have to do much better with his further projects so as to impress the showman Ghai.
