Rishi Kapoor slams Anurag Basu AGAIN, says he made a total mess of Jagga Jasoos
Rishi Kapoor takes on Anurag Kashyap and Anurag Basu on a chat show.
Rishi Kapoor is one actor who is not diplomatic; he is known to speak his mind. RiHe had lashed out at Anurag Basu after the release of Jagga Jasoos. Rishi Kapoor was very upset as the film had kept on getting delayed for over three years. He had lashed out at the director after the release of the film and slammed Anurag Basu and Anurag Kashyap again on Neha Dhupia's chat show.
Neha asked Rishi Kapoor to talk for 60 seconds on Anurag. Rishi Kapoor said, "Anurag? There is Anurag Kashyap, who made Bombay Velvet, but he made a better film in Gangs Of Wasseypur, I couldn't understand head or tale of Bombay Velvet. And then there was Basu who made Barfi an outstanding film. I am so happy he took my son for it. My son got great recognition for the film and then he made this Gajja Jasoos..what Jagga Jasoos whatever.. which he made a total mess of. It was as messy as my pronunciation was. He probably got indulged too much. I guess both the Anurags got indulged in their films. You know when they are good enough to work on certain budget and suddenly they are given huge budgets in hand so bandar ke haath mein khilona nahin aa jaata hai, he goes absolutely berserk. So I think that's what actually happened with both these guys. They were given budgets they could not handle and I guess it happens. It happens with every director, every actor you can't have a hundred percent record anyway...So it happens
Earlier also he had said about Anurag Basu to a leading daily, "He's such an irresponsible director that he doesn't complete the film. It was supposed to release three times in the past two years, but it kept getting delayed."
