Ranbir Kapoor's Besharam has been panned by the critics and audience on social networking websites like Twitter and Facebook, but the director of the film, Abhinav Kashyap isn't too pleased with the media and people with vested interests'.
In a telephonic conversation with Mumbai Mirror, Abhinav says he is happy with the response that the film has got. The first day numbers are the highest for both the director and the actor, yet, a certain section of the audience and media is targeting the film.
"I have the first day numbers of the film which is the highest for both me and Ranbir. I really don't understand why the English media and certain people with vested interest are panning the film. I think they are not able to accept Ranbir in the character he is playing."
The director said even though the film is being liked by the audience, he is also worried that the negativity on social media platforms might eventually begin to have an impact on the film's performance at the box office.
"I am getting calls from my friends from cinema halls. People are roaring in laughter! I am happy with film's first day collection. The collection might drop in the normal course of events as Thursday is a working day. But, then there are people who actually read reviews and tweets before deciding to go for a movie. And I am worried that these negative comments might actually have an impact on the film's fate at the box-office."
The Dabangg director concluded by saying certain forces' dont want the film to work
"It all started when the promos of the film were released. Fans of Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan fans took offence to certain scenes, although we had no intention to hurt anyone. With whatever is happening around Besharam, I smell some kind of a sinister plan. Certain forces don't want the film to succeed"
