Anurag Kashyap issues clarification on wanting to fire Amruta Subhash from Choked: “Culprit here was the agency”

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap recently spoke about the rising entourage costs of actors and how directors fulfil their unnecessary demands. In an exclusive with Bollywood Bubble, Anurag revealed that he was considering replacing Amruta Subhash when her manager demanded a list of things to be done during the shoot. Since then Amruta has been getting negative comments over her demands. Defending her, Anurag stepped in and shared a statement saying that he named her name as an example.

He shared a statement on Instagram and wrote, “A lot of people are shitting on my dear friend Amruta after my interview. This post is to inform that I took her example because I could with asking her. Such is the love and trust between us. The film in question was Choked and she did that film beautifully. Culprit here was the agency, who made demands on her behalf and once I called Amruta, she didn’t know what they were asking and immediately corrected it and today she has even left the said agency.”
