. His other credits are Boom (2003) and Lost & Found (1995).

Death of Nadia Khan and subsequent trial

On May 25, 2004, Gustad was shooting scenes for a new film called Bombay Central at a the Mahalaxmi rail station in Mumbai. A crew member called Nadia Khan was hit by a train and killed. A British-Indian from London, Khan had been offered a position in the crew by Gustad himself. According to news reports, it was her very first day on the set and that she had been speaking into a walkie-talkie and cueing up the actors when the train hit her. It was alleged that Gustad had attempted to cover up the true nature of her death by telling the film crew to pass it off to the authorities as a road accident, but one of the crew told the truth to the police. It was also alleged that Gustad did not have permission to shoot at the platform and the track where the incident occurred. He was subsequently arrested with his assistants Ashish Udeshi and Hadley D'Mello and put on trial for manslaughter, negligence, and fabrication of evidence.
