Rohit Shetty calls Golmaal the “game-changing” film of his career; says, “Golmaal is the biggest risk I have taken”

In an insightful conversation with the blockbuster director, Komal Nahta asked Rohit Shetty about that one stand out project in the director’s filmography that he would consider game changing. Komal Nahta asked the ace director, “What is the game-changing moment or game-changing film in your career?”

Rohit Shetty replied, “I think this keeps happening, but I believe Golmaal is the biggest risk I have taken, and that worked for me.”

Rohit Shetty reflected on key moments from his career, noting that while such turning points are fairly common in his filmography, a standout game changer was his 2006 hit Golmaal. Known primarily for directing action films, Shetty took a risk by venturing into comedy—with action star Ajay Devgn in the lead. At the time, it was a bold move, but one that ultimately paid off. Today, Golmaal has grown into a successful franchise with four films already released and a fifth in the works.

In this hour-long podcast, Rohit Shetty delved into the nuances of filmmaking, the importance of building strong relationships with actors, and shared his thoughts on the ongoing OTT vs. theatrical release debate. Beyond Golmaal, Shetty also spoke about the bold decision to release his much-awaited 2021 action film Sooryavanshi in theatres during the lockdown—a move that came with significant risk. As one of the most successful directors in the Hindi film industry, this conversation with Komal Nahta offers valuable insight into what has shaped Shetty’s enduring success.
