ANURAG IS BOLLYWOOD’S MILORD
Anurag Kashyap, who recently helmed Dobaaraa with Taapsee Pannu, is grabbing headlines for his recent comments about Bollywood destroying itself. He cited Pushpa, Kantara and KGF’s examples while explaining his point of view.
Vivek Agnihotri, who has been making headlines all through this year for The Kashmir Files, slammed Anurag and his statement. He posted a news clip and penned a strong note on Twitter. “I totally totally totally disagree with the views of Bollywood’s one & only Milord. Do you agree? (sic).”
WHAT DID ANURAG SAY?
While Anurag Kashyap is yet to react to Vivek Agnihotri, here is his exact quote on Bollywood destroying itself. During a Galatta Plus round table, Anurag Kashyap said, “With pan-India, what is happening right now is that everybody is trying to make a pan-India film.” He further added, “Success will be 5-10%. Films like Kantara and Pushpa give you the courage to go out and tell your stories. But KGF 2, however big the success, when you try and emulate that and set a project up, that’s when you start heading towards disaster. That’s the bandwagon that Bollywood destroyed itself on. You have to find films that give you courage.”
