He completed his higher secondary in Delhi and further did his Commerce Graduation from Rohtak, Haryana. He later enrolled himself in Film & Television Institute of India, Pune and graduated in film direction. In 1970 he married a Rehana rechristened Mrs Mukta Ghai. After he moved to Mumbai to start his career as a screen actor with 6 films including films like Umang and Aradhna but soon he rediscovered his talent as story teller .He immediately shifted to writing screenplays and sold six scripts to top six directors within one year and as luck moved. In 1974 he got his first directorial break on his own script Kalicharan in 1975 which proved to be a big hit. The story which deals about a police officer, who goes undercover to catch a wealthy and reputable person, is involved in criminal activities. Thereafter he did not have to look back and went on making blockbusters in main stream cinema like Vishwanath, Krodhi, Karz, Vidhaata, Hero, Karma, Ram Lakhan, Saudagar, Khalnayak, Pardes, Taal, Yaadein with a lot of public and critical acclaim. His other hit Ram Lakhan, the touching melodrama about two brothers who could do anything for each other became a trendsetter for family subjects.In 90’s his films like Saudagar, Khalnayak, Pardes and Taal opened a wider audience worldwide for Indian movies and for the first time an Indian film Taal featured in the Hollywood Top Twenty for many weeks. The then President of India honored him with a national award for making Karma an ant-terrorism motion picture in 1986.
His later films like Pardes and Taal opened a wider audience’s world wide for Indian movies and featured in Hollywood top twenty at box-office for various weeks. He then took a break from directing and turned producer having success with producing box office hits such as Aitraaz in 2004, 36 China Town in 2006 and Apna Sapna Money Money . He came up with a tale of three sparring brothers, two of whom can go to any length to get the fortune their father left for their autistic brother in Yuvraaj which was his first theatrical release in Pakistan. After a three year hiatus from directing he returned in 2008 with Black and White. His Black and White is the story of love and hatred. While black represents hatred, white is for love. He has tried to show the shades of love and hatred between Hindus and Muslims based on the concept of these two colors. He has written and directed 16 motion pictures out of which 13 have been declared as the biggest blockbusters of its time.
He started his production company in 1978 as a partnership concern to begin with, then formed a Private Limited company known as Mukta Arts Pvt. Ltd. in 1982 and produced many block busters under the company which is, till date, one of the leading production houses in film making in India. He has been on the board, committees, associations with various activities and missions in the field of social, economic or human welfare. He is a member of executive committee of Producers Guild of India and a member of United Producers forum. He has also been appointed as the Chairman of the Entertainment Committee of Trade body CII and also the member of FICCI and NASCOM and TIE worldwide and its alliances and has been invited to address at various forums and seminars including on corporate governance and other subjects relating to the growth of media and entertainment industry in India and worldwide He is the master who has survived all odds. And despite his last two films creating ripples at the box office, he can never be ruled out. That\'s Subhash Ghai, the man behind some of the biggest and most memorable hits. And every time he is ready with a film it evokes curiosity and expectations. He started Whistling Woods Film and multi media institute and runs the school to encourage new talents.
