Subhash Ghai
Indian filmmaker and director of Karz
“In 2010 at 2.30 am my phone rang. I wondered and heard a voice of #RISHI KAPOOR. 'Tum kya picture banaya hai!!' Kaunsi? I asked. He said, 'Arre hamari... #KARZ. Abhi phir dekha... abhi. Ab tu so ja.' He cut the phone. Only Rishi Kapoor could do this Karz was made in 1980.”
