Today everyone is ashowman says Subhash Ghai

As his multi-starrer film Right Ya Wrong readies for release, a mellowed Subhash Ghai decides to take the middle road

What is your forthcoming film Right Ya Wrong about? How much does it reflect what you think?
The film is about four people who think they are right. Sunny Deol is out to break the law, Konkona Sen Sharma is out to break relationships, Irrfan Khan wants to break all the rules and Issha Koppikar wants to break all morals. The climax decides who is right and who is wrong. As for my way of life, well, I may have done something right, which you thought was wrong - and vice versa. It’s a matter of opinion.

Was it tough to handle the egos of two strong actors, Sunny and Irrfan?
They are two big bulls. I don’t know what happened on the sets. Neeraj Pathak (the film’s director) may have dealt with that. But I can see the way these two have tried to overpower each other in the film.

Many acting schools are coming up these days. Isn’t your Whistling Woods beyond the reach of common man?
I don’t think that applies to Mumbai, where even the fees of a student in class three is equivalent to what a student pays at Whistling Woods. Moreover, I am reaching out to smaller towns, Hyderabad to start with, where the fees will be within the reach of the common man.

Why are the films you direct these days not doing well at the box-office?
Talent can never be destroyed. Doesn’t Sachin Tendulkar too fail on a couple of occasions? I have an 80 per cent success rate in filmmaking. Subhash Ghai will always be Subhash Ghai.

If you were to pass the mantle of showman, whom would you pass it to?
Today, everyone is a showman. Even the comedian Raju Shrivastava is. Please understand that this is not a legacy which I have to pass on. This is a title given by the media. Let the media decide. I am not competing with anybody except myself.
