Just had to walk straight, even that did not happen when Anurag Kashyap went out of control on the set because of an actor
News India Live, Digital Desk: Bollywood’s cult director Anurag Kashyap is known for perfection in his films. They often experiment with new artistes, but sometimes this experimentation gets to be too much for them. Recently, during an interview, Anurag revealed that once he became so ‘frustrated’ with the actions of an actor that he could not control himself. The only reason was that the actor was not able to walk straight during a scene. What was that story? Anurag Kashyap told that he was shooting an important scene. The scene was very simple—the actor had to walk straight towards the camera. But the actor was faltering again and again or his movements were not able to attain the depth that the character demanded. Anurag said, “I couldn’t understand how a person could have so much difficulty in walking straight. We had done dozens of takes and every time the same mistake was happening.” That moment of anger and frustration Anurag admitted that he was very angry at that time. He told that when you are on the set with a vision and even basic things start going wrong, your patience breaks. He did not reveal who the actor was, but made it clear that there was a lot of tension on the set that day. According to Anurag, at that time he felt that maybe he had done the wrong casting. Perfectionist Kashyap’s style: Anurag Kashyap often gives examples of films like ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’ and ‘Dev D’ and tells how much he pays attention to the body language of the characters. For him, acting is not just speaking dialogues but also the style of movement. He said in a humorous tone that now he also takes the ‘walk test’ of actors seriously before casting. After Anurag’s statement went viral on social media, fans are now busy guessing the name of that actor. Some people say that Anurag’s anger is justified because film making is an expensive and time-consuming task, while others are linking it to his ‘strict’ nature.
