Known as the 'Showman' of Bollywood, filmmaker Subhash Ghai has given us several masterpieces like Hero, Khalnayak, Karz, Ram Lakhan, Karma, Saudagar which have made a mark on the industry. The actor, apart from making special appearances in his own films, had made his acting debut in the late 60s.

Reminiscing about his acting days, here's a glimpse of Subhash Ghai as an actor from a song sequence. The said image is from the film Bharat Ke Shaheed which released in 1972 and the filmmaker played the leading man. The film deals with the struggles of a martyr's children as they chose different paths of lifestyle - where one strives for justice and fights against the social evils like corruption, the other has just one aim in life - to become rich by hook or by crook. Feeling nostalgic about his youthful days, Ghai recently shared this picture that is over 45 years old.

Directed by Vishram Bedekar, Bharat Ke Shaheed stars Ramesh Deo, Seema Deo, Ram Avtar, Azad among others.
