Early life and education
Ali was born to Muzaffar Ali and Subhashini Ali (née Sahgal), an Indian politician and member of the Communist Party of India (Marxist).[1] He is thus the grandson of Azad Hind Fauj commander Lakshmi Sahgal and Colonel Prem Sahgal. He studied at the Welham Boys' School and the Lawrence School, Sanawar.[2]
His paternal grandfather, Raja Syed Sajid Husain Ali, was the former ruling prince of the principality of Kotwara in Awadh of pre-independence India. Ali is the nephew of environmental educator Kartikeya Sarabhai and the Indian classical dancer Mallika Sarabhai.[3][4]
Career
Shaad Ali started his career as an assistant director to Mani Ratnam, and assisted him on the film Dil Se.. (1998).
He made his directorial debut under Yash Raj Films and Madras Talkies, with Saathiya (2002), starring Vivek Oberoi and Rani Mukerji. The film was a remake of Mani Ratnam's Tamil film Alaipayuthey (2000). Saathiya's script was written by Ratnam. The film did well and established Ali in the industry.[5]
His second film was Bunty Aur Babli (2005) which for the first time brought together real-life father and son Amitabh Bachchan and Abhishek Bachchan alongside Rani Mukerji. The film was one of the biggest hits of the year.[6]
Ali's third film, released on 15 June 2007 and titled Jhoom Barabar Jhoom, stars Abhishek Bachchan, Preity Zinta, Bobby Deol and Lara Dutta in lead roles.

He then directed the movie Ok Jaanu which released on 13 January 2017. It is a remake of Mani Ratnam's Tamil movie O Kadhal Kanmani. This film reunited him with composer A. R. Rahman after Saathiya (2002), after Rahman turned down Bunty Aur Babli citing a busy schedule.
