'Disgusted' Anurag Kashyap is tired of

'God-like' egos in Bollywood, wants to
move out of Mumbai
By HT Entertainment Desk | Edited by Devansh Sharma

Dec 31, 2024 02:41 PM IST

Anurag Kashyap, who has been acting in a number of

South films, has opened up on why he's disillusioned with
Bollywood.

Anurag Kashyap says he's disgusted by Bollywood, wants to go South.

Anurag Kashyap's rants with Bollywood aren't rare. Now, in

an interview with The Hollywood Reporter India, the
filmmaker went on to say that he's so “disgusted” and
“disappointed” with the Hindi film industry that he's planning
to relocate to the South of India for a more ‘stimulative’
environment. (Also Read: Sanjay Gupta slams Naga Vamsi's
‘disgusting attitude’ towards Boney Kapoor during clash over
Bollywood vs South Cinema)

Story continues below advertisement

Anurag on plans to move to South

“I envy them (South filmmakers). Because now, it's difficult

for me to go out and experiment. Because now, it comes at a
cost. Which makes my producers think about profit. They're
like, ‘Where are my margins? I’m losing money.' I'm like, ‘You
don’t want to make this movie? Don't make this movie. But I
just cannot.' Because right from the beginning, before the
film starts, it becomes about ‘how do we sell it?’ So the joy of
filmmaking is sucked out. That's why I want to move out.
Literally, next year, I'm moving out of Mumbai," Anurag said.

Anurag said the reason he wants to relocate to South is

because he craves ‘stimulation.’ Otherwise he'd ‘die out an old
man.’ He's “disgusted” and “disappointed” by the mindsets in
Bollywood. He quoted the example of Chidambaram S.
Poduval's blockbuster Malayalam survival thriller
Manjummel Boys, which would never be made in Hindi, but
as soon as it's a hit in Malayalam, its remake rights would be
acquired by a Bollywood producer. He said Hindi cinema
doesn't want to make anything new, which doesn't have a
reference point.
