He further added, “This debate also happened during the time of Kabir Singh. Filmmakers have the right to make the films they want to make and express what they want to express. We should not criticize them. You can argue, you can argue, you can disagree. Films either provoke or evoke. There is nothing wrong with filmmakers who make films that are provocative.”
According to Anurag Kashyap, morality is highly subjective and 80 percent of Indian men resemble Kabir Singh. The filmmaker also pointed out the problems with Kabir Singh and said, “The only problem with that movie was that the other characters had no agency. They were only used to support the central character.” It’s a necessary discussion. There should be a healthy discussion. We can’t just stop and cancel each other out.”
Kashyap is looking forward to watching the movie Animal and plans to talk to the director after watching it. Dev D’s director prefers direct communication and has stated that if he has a problem with a film, he always calls the filmmakers on social media rather than discussing it in the media.
