Anurag Kashyap took to social media to express his joy after watching Karan Johar's Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani

Anurag Kashyap watches 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' twice, calls it 'best Karan Johar film so far'

Karan Johar returned to the director's chair after 7 years with 'Rocky Aur Rani Kii Prem Kahaani' and what a magical return it has been. Not just industry members, but critics and audiences have been enjoying the film equally. The film has everything that a true blue Bollywood film is known for- emotion, drama, comedy, romance, and music. Anurag Kashyap who comes from a totally different school of cinema than Karan has high praises for the film which he has already watched twice. 


The 'Gangs Of Wasseypur' director took to his Instagram handle on Sunday morning and penned a long note praising the film and the team behind it. "Best @karanjohar film by far. He never leaves his world but he also does not hold back any punches. Also it’s the second KJo film that I bought the tickets for that too twice, and sending everyone that trusts me to go see. Some super writing , a top of form @ranveersingh , ever so brilliant @aliaabhatt and there sparkling chemistry . After a long time I loved the dialogue writing in mainstream Hindi film where people talk like they talk . Kudos to @_ishita_moitra_ and @gogoroy," he wrote sharing a picture of the poster.

"My favourite part of the film is the incredible unrequited love story of @aapkadharam and @azmishabana18 and the patriarchal villainy of the matriarch @jayabachchn . Also not to forget @totaroychoudhury and @utterlychurni , @bashiraamir and the mother sister duo of Ranveer.. ( apologies for not knowing who they’re ) The use of old classic songs and the trolling of @somenmishra with “meri pyaari bindu” .. uff that gave me so much personal joy 😂. Jokes apart - the way karan addresses all kinds of snobbery , all kinds of shame and phobias that come from our conditioning , the way he addresses our conditioning with all the humour and aplomb and joharisms.. was totally sucked in his world .. the high point of the film for me was @totaroychoudhury and @ranveersingh dancing to “Dola re Dola re”. And the whole monologue of Ranveer on how we cancel each other all the time or Alia’s rant post the Durga Pujo scene .. and @baidnitin .. you actually cut the songs halfway( or did karan shoot them only the amount that was required) .. that was also a first in a KJO film . Thoroughly entertained and laughed and cried and believe it or not .. saw it twice .. the mainstream Hindi film I’ve been missing for so long .. the real @karanjohar that I know has fully put himself out there," he added.
