Anurag Kashyap And Amitabh Bachchan Controversy
Thursday, October 01, 2009
Director Anurag Basu of Gangster, Murder and Life In A Metro recently said Amitabh should retire as he is losing his charm. He went on to say that every time people ask him who he would like to direct next, they just assume Basu would name Bachchan. However, it's not so.

Big B, though miffed, coolly responded saying, "Sometimes in the mid-80s, some journalists had made similar claims and a few well known magazines even published it then. However, today neither those journalists exist nor do the film magazines. I hope Anurag doesn't see the same fate."
Anurag says that while he has seen Big B's Kala Pathhar and Majboor over a hundred times, he dreads watching Ramu Ki Aag.He also went on to say the Big B's acting has become mechanical now. The director, who managed to stay away from controversies until now, has sure managed to rub Amitabh Bachchan the wrong way.
