Renowned Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap recently shared a surprising revelation about being ghosted by two actors he helped launch in the film industry. In a candid interview, Kashyap expressed his disappointment over the incident, highlighting the struggles filmmakers often face with actors they introduce to the limelight.
Kashyap, known for his critically acclaimed films like “Gangs of Wasseypur” and “Black Friday”, mentioned that these actors made him wait for three years. Despite his patience and continuous efforts to collaborate with them again, the actors eventually stopped responding to his calls and messages.
Kashyap described the situation as disheartening, explaining how he invests time and effort into nurturing new talent. “They make you go around for three years, and then they just disappear”, he said.
He emphasized that such behavior not only affects professional relationships but also hurts on a personal level. The filmmaker did not name the actors, but his account sheds light on the often unseen challenges in the entertainment industry.
Kashyap’s experience serves as a reminder of the uncertainties and unpredictability that filmmakers face, even after contributing significantly to an actor’s career. Despite these setbacks, Kashyap remains committed to his craft and continues to support new talent in Bollywood.
