Indian filmmaker Anurag Kashyap recently found himself at the centre of online attention after a casual dinner outing with filmmaker Imtiaz Ali and a group of friends. While the gathering brought together two well-known names from the Indian film industry, it was Kashyap’s unusual T-shirt that quickly became the main talking point on social media.
Kashyap shared several pictures from the dinner on social media, giving fans a glimpse of the gathering. Alongside the photographs, he joked that although it was supposed to be a family dinner, his T-shirt ended up attracting more attention than anything else.
The red T-shirt featured the words “dimagi nakal” prominently, followed by the phrase “been into this since my school days”. The unusual wording immediately caught the attention of social media users, particularly because it appeared to be a playful reference to the phrase “dimagi naxals”, which has recently featured in political discussions in India.
Kashyap’s humorous choice of clothing quickly prompted a variety of reactions. Some users appreciated the filmmaker’s sense of humour and found the design amusing, while others were impressed enough to suggest that the T-shirt should be made available as merchandise.
One social media user expressed admiration for the design and proudly referred to themselves as a “dimagi nakal”. Another directly encouraged Kashyap to consider launching merchandise featuring the slogan.
Beyond the T-shirt, the dinner pictures also generated excitement because of Kashyap’s meeting with Imtiaz Ali. Fans were delighted to see the two acclaimed filmmakers together and filled the comments section with reactions to their reunion.
The reference behind the T-shirt gained additional significance because the phrase “dimagi naxal” had recently become part of a political conversation following remarks made by Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi during his Independence Day speech. The comment prompted reactions and debate across political and social circles.
Meanwhile, Kashyap remains busy with several projects across the Indian film industry. He has been involved in directing, producing and acting in a number of films. His recent directorial work includes Nishaanchi, while he has also been associated with projects such as Bad Girl, Bandar and the Kannada film Vaghachipani.
As an actor, Kashyap is also set to appear in the Telugu film Dacoit: A Love Story. Known for his distinctive filmmaking style and outspoken personality, he frequently attracts attention both for his creative work and his candid presence on social media.
