In a procession of tweets, director Anubhav Sinha declared openly that he is quitting from Bollywood. He then went on to add “Not Bollywood” to his Twitter name as well.
The ‘Article 15’ director then referred to Sudhir Mishra’s tweets which said, “What’s Bollywood? I came to be a part of Cinema inspired by Satyajit Ray, Raj Kapoor, Guru Dutt, Ritwick Ghatak, Bimal Roy, Mrinal Sen, Hrishikesh Mukherjee, K Asif, Vijay Anand, Javed Akhtar, Tapan Sinha, Gulzar, Shekhar Kapur, Ketan Mehta, Bharatan n Aravindan etc. That’s where I’ll always be. And Saeed Mirza. How did I forget Saeed Mirza! The grace, the vision, the charisma.”
Sinha, who has garnered a lot of prominence and adulation directing “Mulk”, “Article 15” and “Thappad” in recent years, is known for his straightforward posts on social media.
Filmmaker Hansal Mehta responded: “”Chhor diya (left it) It never existed in the first place.”
