I Will Charge 5 Lakhs Per Hour From Now On: Anurag Kashyap

Acclaimed filmmaker Anurag Kashyap who helped a lot of budding artists and gave popularity to actors like Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Rajkumar Rao, Vicky Kaushal and others has recently made an angry post on social media. He stated that he will be charging money to meet new people from now on.

He said, "I wasted a lot of time trying to help newcomers and mostly ended up with mediocre s**t. So now onwards I don't want to waste my time with meeting random people who think they're creative geniuses. So I will now have rates."

He added, "If someone wants to meet me for 10-15 minutes I will charge 1 lac, for half hour 2 lacs and for 1 hour 5 lacs. That's the rate. I am tired of wasting time meeting people. If you really think you can afford it, call me or stay the f**k away. And all paid in advance."

He further posted, "And I mean it. Don’t text or dm or call me. Pay, and you will get time. I am not a charity, and I am tired of people looking for shortcuts. Forwarding this to everyone in my dms and email who keep sending me scripts to forward to you."

Anurag is known for his movies like 'Paanch', 'Black Friday', 'No Smoking', 'Dev.D', 'Gulaal', 'Gangs Of Wasseypur 1 & 2', 'Ugly' and others. His big-budget film 'Bombay Velvet' tanked at the box office which made him director movies like 'Raman Raghav 2.0', 'Mukkebaaz', 'Manmarziyaan', 'Dobaara' and others.
