If Gandhi (1982) started his global stint, it was Roland Joffé’s City of Joy (1992) and Damien O’Donnel’s East is East (1999) which bought him in worldwide reckoning. His other performances abroad include Deepa Mehta’s Sam and Me (Canada, 1991), Wolf (1994) with Jack Nicholson and Michelle Pfeiffer, Brothers in Trouble (1995), The Ghost and the Darkness (1996) with Michael Douglas and Val Kilmer, The Brit-French film My Son the Fanatic (1997), The Parole Officer (2001), Happy Now (2001), The Zookeeper (2001), Ismail Merchant’s Mystic Masseur (2001) and Code 46 (2003).
