In fact, Anurag Kashyap in his recent conversation took a dig at Bollywood and praised the Malayalam film industry, saying, "In Malayalam cinema, they are not afraid to take risks, such as casting influential people in lead roles, as seen in Aavesh.

Anurag Kashyap, while praising South cinema, especially Malayalam films in comparison to Hindi films, said, "I watch more Malayalam films than Hindi films these days because they excite me a lot more. Here in the Malayalam film industry, people tell original stories that are unique to each person. The filmmakers are satisfying themselves rather than the market. A film like 'Brahmayugam' would never be made in black and white in any other industry. This shows that they are making the films they really want to make."
