Anurag Kashyap Recalls Losing Temper Over Actor Who ‘Couldn’t Walk Straight’
Anurag Kashyap: Anurag Kashyap is known for his unique style of filmmaking. Now, the director has revealed when he became frustrated with an actor's repeated retakes. Find out how Anurag got that scene done...
The veteran film director and producer Anurag Kashyap is awaiting the release of his upcoming film, "Kennedy." The film has already received appreciation at various international film festivals. It is now ready to be released in India. Anurag Kashyap also narrated a tale regarding an actor who could not even perform a simple scene of walking and kept taking retakes. This made the director angry.
While sharing his experiences in a video on Sucharita Tyagi’s YouTube channel, Anurag Kashyap was asked if there was ever a time when he was bothered by an actor during a shoot and felt like he was trapped. The actor agreed and shared his experience.
The director explained that he was once in a bind. "I always find ways." There was an actor who, for some reason, couldn't walk straight. I wanted him to come out from behind a bar.
There was limited space, but he could have come in easily. But his hands and legs were completely out of control. He would sway from side to side. Sometimes bottles would fall, sometimes something else.
The director further spoke about being irritated by the actor's behavior. He said, "I was furious with his behavior. I picked up a chalk and then scratched it on one corner and then the wall. I said, 'If I see a chalk mark on your body, I'll remove you from the film.' After that, he walked away."
