Anurag Ready To Apologize To Milap For Commenting On GRAND MASTI

Saturday, 14th Mar 2015, 1:05 PM IST Few days ago, while promoting his film ‘Hunterrr’, Anurag Kashyap had stated that if someone offers him an amount of Rs. 5cr, still he won’t watch movies like ‘Masti’ and ‘Grand Masti’. The director’s comment didn’t go down well with Milap Zaveri, who’s the writer of ‘Masti’ and ‘Grand Masti’. Milap took to twitter to lash out at Anurag. However, recently, Anurag said that if he offended Milap then he is ready to apologize. Milap had said, “I have a problem that Anurag said this while promoting his own sex comedy, which is probably the baap in this genre. The first line of its promo is as profane as it gets. Director Indra Kumar is not on social media to defend ‘Grand Masti’ and he was happy that I voiced what he was feeling. When Anurag has made a sex comedy, isn't it inappropriate to speak so condescendingly about the biggest hit in that particular genre? What is the need to bad-mouth? Vikas Bahl and Vikramaditya Motwane were both there and they expressed the fact that they did not like ‘Masti’ or its sequel in a very civil manner.” “I don't understand why people can't appreciate if a film has fared well. This holier-than-thou attitude and saying that he isn't frustrated enough to watch ‘Grand Masti’ shows double standards when he is promoting a sex comedy. He has built a certain persona around himself and is considered intellectual and I love his films - be it ‘Dev D’ or ‘Gangs Of Wasseypur’. You know what's funnier? The filmmaker who is known for family entertainers is Sooraj Barjatya and I have a message from him that says he loved the film. He is appreciative of his colleagues and doesn't act like a hypocrite,” he added. When Anurag was contacted, he said, “Yaar, ask him! I have no time for it. I would never have said anything against him in any case. If something I have said has offended him, then I will apologise to him.” Now you can enjoy ad-free experience by downloading India’s first Box Office mobile app from here –Android:http://bit.ly/BOCapsuleMobileApp and iOS:bit.ly/BOCapsuleiOSApp |
