The top 10 most inspiring quotes by Anurag Kashyap

  • When you are very idealistic, but caught in a world which is all about business, it creates anguish.
  • Independent graphic novelists have already achieved good work in terms of design, but all these great minds are writing in English. There is a need for people to write in Hindi.
  • The censor boards are mere redundant forces conspiring to keep the ‘bold’ films out of reach of the audience.
  • I’m very emotional and possessive about all my films.
  • All those pseudo-Hollywood movies set nowhere, with everybody good looking and having great physique – that’s not working any more.
  • When violence is real and you flinch away from it, violence does not push people to try and imitate that. Often, we shun the violence that makes us flinch, because it disturbs us. And what makes us uncomfortable and disturbs us is not often bad. What disturbs us will not make us imitate that.
  • I was 16 when I got admission in Hans Raj College. I completed school when I was 16, so everyone in my class – Zoology Honours batch 92 – was 18, and I was often treated like a kid.
  • Films are like oxygen for me.
  • I’m a huge Coppola fan. But more of ‘Apocalypse Now’ and ‘The Conversation.’ ‘The Godfather’ for me is, like, number three or four on the list.
  • There shouldn’t be any censorship on making a film.
