Milap Zaveri Attacks Anurag Kashyap On Twitter
Updated : April 06, 2016 10:59 AM IST Dialogue writer and director, Milap Zaveri, who rose to fame with films like Main Tera Hero, Ek Villain, Grand Masti etc. took Twitterati by storm!
In a series of tweets, he expressed his anguish against filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who said in an interview that he would not watch films like Grand Masti and Masti even if he was offered Rs. 5 Crores.
Very soon the discussion turned into a nasty debate with Milap on one side and Kashyap supporters on the other. Here's what happened.
“@Bollyhungama: https://t.co/3QQJll0dVC” Mr Kashyap Ure lifetime films combined haven't made as much as #Masti n #GrandMasti so take a hike!

A very offended Milap reacted like this!
Anurag Kashyap says if someone gives him 5 cr also he won't see #Masti or #GrandMasti Maybe that's why most of his films don't do even 5cr!

Referring to Anurag's latest production Hunterrr, the writer really lost his cool !
Jab box office Aapke pichwaade pe "hunterrr" maarega na tab pata chalega ki sex comedy mein #Masti aur #GrandMasti Aapke baap lagte hain!

Milap's supporters poured in their opinion against Anurag Kashyap!

Anurag's fans weren't far behind! But, Zaveri had already taken the comments to heart!
@sidwillrocku are GOW 1 and 2 plus Dev d biz together isn't even 50% of grand Masti!
— Milap Zaveri (@zmilap) March 10, 2015
Milap tried to clarify that he has liked films like Queen from the house of Phantom, but he clearly was in no mood to stop bashing Kashyap!
@sidwillrocku @kushdedhia @Bollyhungama I loved #Queen too which he didn't direct btw. But who is he to bitch against blockbusters?

And then, it became a bit ugly!
@9ratna_9 Grand Masti did 100 crs. ONLY adult film to do so. And films r made for money. Not self masturbation!
— Milap Zaveri (@zmilap) March 10, 2015
And uglier!
Anurag says he isn't frustrated to see #GrandMasti Correct. He makes #Girlintheyellowboots where a father gets handjobs from his daughter.

Anurag Kashyap was being given some gyaan during a late night Twitter outburst without any reaction from him.
I respect @mohit11481 who On directors round table with @RajeevMasand said #GrandMasti was his fav film that year. Bravo! Learn Mr Kashyap
— Milap Zaveri (@zmilap) March 10, 2015
While Milap complained that we don't bash films publicly (we think he's forgotten who critics are), eminent film critic Rajeev Masand defended Kashyap!
@zmilap If Mohit is allowed to say he loves Grand Masti, why isn't Anurag allowed to say he hates it?
— Rajeev Masand (@RajeevMasand) March 10, 2015
Milap was still explaining...
@RajeevMasand Pls see his interview. He is rude, derogatory and nasty about it. Everyone has the right to not like something but be civil na
— Milap Zaveri (@zmilap) March 10, 2015
Film critic Mihir Fadnavis also put forth his point of view!
@zmilap Usne bola he doesn’t find it funny. Do you expect everyone to find your films amazing ?
— Mihir Fadnavis (@mihirfadnavis) March 10, 2015
Exactly our point! We wish that talent respects talent and the film industry continues to be a single unit!
Everyone has a right to not like something. But that dislike can be expressed in a civil manner without being derogatory Mr Kashyap.
