Anurag Kashyap Says His Daughter Aaliyah 'HATED' Ranbir Kapoor's Animal; Here's Why
Anurag Kashyap recently opened up on how his daughter Aaliyah Kashyap called him out for sharing a photo with Animal director with Sandeep Reddy Vanga.

Bollywood director Anurag Kashyap’s daughter Aaliyah Kashyap expressed her disappointment after her father shared a picture with Sandeep Reddy Vanga and praised Animal. In a new interview, the filmmaker opened up about the same.

In an interview with YouTuber Janice Sequiera, Anurag also shared how Aaliyah called him out. “My daughter called me out. She hated Animal.” The filmmaker added that she was upset when he shared a photo with Sandeep Reddy Vanga from their meeting and praised him. He further revealed how, his friends also criticized him for posting the picture.

”They all came home and asked me 10,000 questions. And I was like, tum baki sab toh chhod do, picture ka naam kya hail? (Leave everything else, what is the name of the film?) Animal. It’s not called ‘Human’. Why did the film become difficult? Because everyone’s favorite Ranbir Kapoor played the role,” he shared.

Earlier this year, Aaliyah hosted the Gangs of Wasseypur director on her podcast and the subject of his picture with Vanga was brought up. Aaliyah revealed that she disliked Ranbir Kapoor’s Animal. She recalled she ‘bit*hed’ about the ‘horrible, misogynistic’ film with Anurag and the filmmaker agreed with her criticism only to share a picture with Vanga a week later.

On her podcast, Young, Dumb & Anxious, Aaliyah said, “The caption of the post where you were promoting the guy which I was not very happy about. I actually saw Animal and called you immediately and ranted, ‘What a horrible, misogynistic movie it is and how much I hated it,’ and you agreed with me. A week later when I opened Instagram, I saw a post from my father, promoting a man I was b*tching about.”

Anurag weighed in to add that he was a cancelled filmmaker at his peak, much like Vanga is today, and said that he understands how isolated it feels. “You were much younger when your father was cancelled for his films. After Dev D came out, I was cancelled by a lot of people. I was the untouchable guy. People said, ‘What a misogynistic film!’ Gangs of Wasseypur was also met with a similar fate even though my characters had agencies. I have often seen people isolating someone, attacking someone and that is not the way to be,” he said.

Anurag also opened up about meeting Vanga. “I met him, I like him. I like the guy. I’ve had questions of my own and I wanted to talk to him about his film. I invited him and I had a long five-hour conversation and I like the guy,” the filmmaker shared.
