Anurag Kashyap Says Piyush Mishra’s Blunt Critique Comes From Care

The director presents the recent “second‑half” jibes as friendly guidance discouraging him from reacting to everything.

Overview

  • Kashyap responded to Piyush Mishra’s on‑camera claim that he “ruins” the second halves of films like Gulaal, Dev D and Gangs of Wasseypur.
  • He said Mishra tells him to stop reacting, warning that he himself “wasted” years doing so and urging Kashyap not to become like him.
  • Kashyap added that Manoj Bajpayee often checks his bluntness yet remains protective, offering what he calls the most honest advice.
  • He downplayed a viral Jugnuma‑premiere clip of him and others touching Bajpayee’s feet, calling it a playful reunion moment.
  • He described his long‑running ties with collaborators as close and quiet, naming friendships that include Vikramaditya Motwane and Nawazuddin Siddiqui.
