Anurag Kashyap: “I am the nation’s most nepotistic filmmaker”
Anurag Kashyap claims to be the most nepotistic Indian director and claims that in order to collaborate on a project, he must know the right people. The actor Taapsee Pannu attended the interview where Anurag discussed nepotism.
Anurag is eagerly anticipating the debut of his upcoming film, Dobaaraa. The movie is an authorised Hindi translation of the 2018 Spanish film Mirage. The movie, which also features Pavail Gulati, Rahul Bhat, and Saswata Chatterjee, was written by Nihit Bhave.
In an interview with News 18, Anurag claimed, “I am the most nepotistic filmmaker in the nation. Nepotism: what is it? Okay, fine, my daughter isn’t in the movies, but I still won’t employ a stranger.
It’s not even favouritism; it’s not even a camp. I must get to know my clan because I believe in them. I have to be completely confident in the people I hire because I place a lot of trust in them.
Who do you most trust during (troubled) times, he continued? Actually, anyone will trust their family, so to me, my set resembles their family. Nepotism does exist, as evidenced by the fact that I hire people through my connections (ek ke through hi dusra aata hai). Nepotism in that case. If my first assistant director (AD) were to depart, I wouldn’t be aware of any suitable replacements in the market.
I’ll get another good AD from my AD. He will provide me with a replacement if my production designer leaves.
Taapsee is “super nepotistic,” Anurag added in jest, and she has been attempting to launch her sister Shagun Pannu with KRK (actor Kamaal Rashid Khan). Adding that Shagun has stopped visiting Dubai since hearing the news because she is afraid, Taapsee burst out laughing.
Dobaaraa brings Taapsee and Anurag together once more. On the romantic drama Manmarziyaan, which also starred Vicky Kaushal and Abhishek Bachchan, they first collaborated four years ago. Anurag’s debut sci-fi movie and first remake are both titled Dobaara.
Dobaaraa is co-produced by Sunir Kheterpal and Gaurav Bose’s production company Athena and Ekta Kapoor’s Cult Movies, a new division under Balaji Telefilms.

Food blogger attacked by Swara Bhasker for boasting about being a vegetarian on Twitter: “Smug self-righteousness”
In response to food blogger Nalini Unagar’s “proud to be a vegetarian” tweet, actor Swara Bhasker attacked Unagar. On Sunday, Nalini posted a photo of her lunch at X. It included a paneer dish and fried rice.
What was said by the food blogger?
Nalini shared the picture and added, “I’m happy to be a vegetarian. There are no more tears, cruelty, or guilt on my platter.”
This is Swara’s response.
In response, Swara penned, “To be honest… I find vegetarians’ arrogant self-righteousness to be incomprehensible. Denying the calf its mother’s milk, forcing cows to become pregnant, ripping them from their calves, and taking their milk are the main components of your diet.”
Furthermore, she said, “You eat root vegetables? That eliminates the entire plant! Just because it’s Bakr Eid, don’t stress about virtue signalling (folded hands emojis). June 16–17 is when Bakr Eid, or Eid al-Adha, is observed.
Swara just had her Eid celebration.
A few months after celebrating Eid al-Fitr, Swara posted a tweet. She celebrated the occasion with her daughter Raabiyaa and spouse Fahad Ahmad. On her Instagram Stories, Swara posted snippets of her Eid festivities. Swara and Raabiyaa were shown in one of the stories pointing at the Eid ka Chaand. Another photo shows Swara, her daughter, and Fahad posing as a family. Fahad is Muslim, but Swara is Hindu.
When Swara discussed the cultures of her and Fahad
Swara performed a chhathi puja for Raabiyaa the previous year. She revealed tidbits from the festivities and reported discovering shared cultural experiences with Fahad’s family. “The child is a mish mash of the mish mash we are,” Swara had wrote. She therefore has 62.5% UP, 12.5% Bihar, and 25% Andhra. Furthermore, I support representation and am always up for a celebration! Furthermore, since our wedding, we’ve learned that Muslims and Hindus in North India have common cultural customs, which strengthens my conviction that, despite our variety, love and joy will always find a language.”
“Chhathhi, or the sixth day of a child’s birth, is celebrated throughout UP Bihar. Mom and kid dress in the colour of turmeric or haldi, and aunts or bua put kaajal on the child and parents to protect them from ‘nazar,’ or the evil eye! I’m performing a well-known “sohar”—celebration songs for new babies. Although sohars are often used to celebrate newborn boys, I customised it for a newborn girl—oh! And although sisters and aunts sing the sohars, mothers don’t, so I thought, “Why not?” Dholak aa gaya hai! Thank you to @manisha2967 for the Chhathhi lesson and the beautiful singing I was able to do, and to Bhanu ji @partapsinghb11 for the dholak that helped make my singing pleasant.
