Anupam Kher Reacts To Anurag Kashyap’s Jibe At Aditya Chopra

Recently,
during
the
promotions
of

Dobaaraa,
actor
Anurag
Kashyap
took
a
jibe
at
YRF’s
head
honcho
Aditya
Chopra
and
blamed
him
for
the
failure
of
YRF’s
recent
projects
like

Shamshera,
Samrat
Prithviraj,
Jayeshbhai
Jordaar,
etc.
In
an
earlier
interview
with
Galatta
Plus,
he
had
said,
“You
have
one
person
sitting
in
a
cave,
who
doesn’t
know
the
world
outside,
dictating
how
everybody
should
be
making
their
films
and
telling
them
what
to
do.”

He
further
said
that
if
Aditya
Chopra
has
hired
a
bunch
of
people,
he
needs
to
empower
them
and
not
dictate
them.

He
further
said,
“Sit
in
your
office,
hire
good
people
if
you
trust
them,
and
let
them
make
their
film.
Which
is
the
mistake
he
makes.
He
doesn’t
let
them
(be).”

Now,
in
an
interview
with
Sidharth
Kannan,
Anupam
Kher
reacted
to
Anurag’s
statement
and
slammed
him
for
the
same.

He
said,
“I
am
very,
very
proud
of
Aditya
Chopra.
Yash
ji’s
family
is
like
my
own
family.
To
have
built
an
empire
like
Yash
Raj
Films
is
not
an
easy
thing.
It’s
easy
for
people
to
make
comments.
I
don’t
again
want
to
pass
judgement
on
what
he
has
said.
He
is
not
the
ultimate
authority
on
human
behaviour.”

Interestingly,
recently
while
speaking
to
Navharat
Times,
he
mentioned
that
he
is
not
a
part
of
mainstream
cinema
anymore.

“I
am
not
doing
any
Karan
Johar
film,
I
am
not
doing
any
Sajid
Nadiadwala
film,
I
am
not
doing
any
Aditya
Chopra
film
because
the
offers
have
not
come.
I
was
a
darling
of
all
these
people.
I
have
done
everybody’s
films.
But
I
am
not
blaming
them
for
not
casting
me
anymore,”
said
Kher.
