For your information, let us tell you that today, on 14 May, Anurag Kashyap shared a screenshot of a news report on Instagram which gave details of what Vivek Agnihotri had said about him. The title of which was 'Anurag Kashyap was a drunkard who handed over the work to Vikram Motwane': Vivek Agnihotri said that working with the filmmaker had become difficult. Anurag wrote below the screenshot, "Kitna liar hai ye aadmi. The shooting took place in London. I was in India. He did not want the script from Motwane or me. He wanted to make Football Ki Lagaan and he got that poor script written by his own writer. Neither I nor Motwane ever visited the set. Stop pretending Vivekanohotri".

In fact, in a recent interview, Vivek Agnihotri claimed that Anurag Kashyap's drinking habits made the work environment challenging during the making of Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal. The producer said, "Anurag used to drink a lot at that time, so there was no account of his time, then he brought Vikramaditya Motwane, said that I have a son named RK, he will help. Gradually, all the work was given to Vikramaditya. What I was trying to make, these people had a different thinking, they wanted to make something else. It became difficult to handle Anurag. Because only an alcoholic knows what an alcoholic suffers. This became a big problem".

'Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal' was released in the year 2007
