In conversation with Mr. Subhash Ghai, narrating his journey in the Indian film industry, Mr. Madhur Bhandarkar shared, "I used to work in a video cassette library, delivering cassettes in and around the neighbouring areas as well as at Mr. Subhash Ghai’s place. That's where my journey began. I did not hail from a film background and due to financial difficulties had to do odd jobs. However, films always intrigued me and I used to watch movies of different genres and my love and passion for it kept increasing. I started visiting sets to see the shoots and analyse them. My passion and love for filmmaking coupled with hard work got me an opportunity to assist Mr. Ram Gopal Verma and eventually, evolve in the industry."
