Anurag Kashyap Apologizes To Brahmin Community: Popular filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is surrounded by controversies due to making objectionable comments on a particular caste (Anurag Kashyap Controversial Statement). Everyone is strongly condemning the film director.

Anurag Kashyap Apologizes To Brahmin Community

Let us tell you that filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has publicly apologized to the Brahmin community for his earlier statements. The producer apologized and wrote, "I forgot my limits while replying to someone in anger. And I spoke badly about the entire Brahmin community. That community whose many people have been in my life, are still there and contribute a lot. Today all of them are hurt by me. My family is hurt by me. Many intellectuals, whom I respect, are hurt by my anger and my way of speaking."

Continuing his talk, Anurag Kashyap further said, "By saying such a thing, I myself deviated from the topic. I apologize from the bottom of my heart to this society to whom I did not want to say this, but wrote it in anger while replying to someone's bad comment. I apologize to all my co-workers, my family and that society for my way of speaking, for the abusive language. I will work on not letting this happen again. I will work on my anger. And if I have to talk about the issue, I will use the right words. I hope you will forgive me".

In fact, the controversy started after Anurag Kashyap responded to criticism of his film Phule, a biopic based on social reformers Jyotirao Phule and Savitribai Phule. A social media user commented on Anurag Kashyap's post, "Brahmins are your fathers..." Responding to this, the filmmaker replied, "I will urinate on Brahmins. Any problem?" The post went viral, sparking outrage among several Brahmin organisations. However, Kashyap later publicly apologised. Following the controversy, Kashyap's daughter Aaliya and her family and colleagues received rape and death threats from online trolls. The director also faced legal action as an FIR was filed against him in Jaipur for using derogatory language towards the community.
