Vivek Agnihotri has responded to a news article which had Anurag Kashyap's opinion on films like, 'Kantara' and 'Pushpa'. The former also sarcastically calls Kashyap 'Bollywood's one and only Milord'.
Check out his Tweet here:
He wrote, 'I totally totally totally disagree with the views of Bollywood’s one & only Milord. Do you agree?' The headline read as, 'Films like 'Kantara' and 'Pushpa' are destroying the industry: Anurag Kashyap.'
While many agreed with Agnihotri, others claimed that Anurag had been misquoted and asked Vivek to go and watch the interview. Anurag told Galatta Plus in an interview that films like 'Kantara' and 'Pushpa' give you 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. According to him, that's the bandwagon that Bollywood destroyed itself on. Kashyap added that one has to find films that give one courage.
'Kantara', 'Pushpa', 'KGF Chapter 2' have also made it to the highest-grossing films of the year across Indian films. While 'Kantara' has received mixed reviews from the audience and the critics alike, the other two films did not receive a good critical review.
