Gupta started his career with
Aatish: Feel the Fire (1994) starring
Aditya Pancholi and
Sanjay Dutt. Later he went on to write and direct films including
Ram Shastra,
Khauff and
Jung. The filming of
Jung (2000) lasted over two years. While filming
Kaante in
Los Angeles in 2001, the events of the
9/11 attack forced filming to relocate planned scenes from several areas that were then considered sensitive. He also produced the films
Shootout at Lokhandwala (2007) and
Dus Kahaniyaan, and directed and co-produced
Shootout at Wadala, the prequel to
Shootout at Lokhandwala. On 24 December 2019, he made an announcement on the acquisition of
Yali Dream Creations' Rakshak. Gupta took to
Twitter to share details about the project which revolves around a "vigilante" superhero. "So proud and happy to announce that my company White Feather Films has acquired the rights for 'RAKSHAK' A thrilling graphic novel about a vigilante superhero.
