Brother Abhinav Kashyap was behind Anurag's life to make a masala film

'Dabangg inspired my next'

Over the years, Anurag Kashyap has shown his inclination towards making dark films —Black Friday, Gulaal and That Girl In Yellow Boots. His forthcoming film — a gangster flick — marks his foray into masala cinema. Incidentally, the filmmaker confesses that it was brother Abhinav Kashyap who pushed him to try his hand at making such a film.



Speaking about the film that will be screened at Cannes this year, he says, “My latest film is a fun film. It has romance, songs and action but at the same time it is also very real. In fact, Abhinav’s debut film Dabangg had a major role to play in me making this film.”

He explains further, “Abhinav’s first film was for the masses but was rooted and so earthy. I have not made such a film till date. He has always been behind my life to make a film that is connected to the place we come from. Bahut dande pade Abhinav se tab jaake yeh picture banai hai. I also had this argument with him that even I could make a commercial film.”
