Mumbai, June 26
Veteran filmmaker Subhash Ghai recently took a trip down memory lane as he reminisced about the making of his iconic 1997 film “Pardes.”
Sharing a nostalgic behind-the-scenes photo from the film’s shoot at Fatehpur Sikri, Ghai reflected on the passionate collaboration that brought the story to life. In his heartfelt note, the director emphasized that a memorable film like “Pardes” is only possible when writers, directors, and actors come together with equal passion and commitment.
He credited the film’s emotional depth and timeless appeal to the combined efforts of his co-writer Neeraj Pathak, dialogue writer Javed Siddiqui, and lead actor Shah Rukh Khan—especially in powerful scenes like the film’s climax.
