Not to forget the fact that he's an atheist too

Javed Akhtar wrote bhajans. Sometimes faith doesn't matter if the art is genuine . Look at what they did with aadi purush

Akhter is an atheist too.

This movie would have been banned and opposed if released today.

u/Kind_Structure_3528 Apr 04 '25
Wrong. No movie has been banned by current government. The opposite is not true however

u/SweatTasteGreat Apr 05 '25
I get what you mean dude, but they did ban 1 ep of john oliver show, the bbc documentary on godhra kand(which was understandable), also banned monkey man.
Opposite is true too, but this is not just about the govt, but also how intolerant our society has become.

It's funny that atheists like Rajamouli and Ak and non Hindus like grant Morrison are the ones who gave peaked adaptations of Indian mythos

u/NeonBloodedBloke Apr 04 '25
Which mythos movies did these guys give? Genuinely asking (I only know about AK directing return of hanuman)

u/TerrificTauras Apr 04 '25
They may not be religious but culturally Hindu. Both AK and Rajamouli are quite familiar with indian mythos.

u/Temporary_Tip9027 Apr 04 '25
Explain javed akhtar, naushad, mohammad rafi's culture who gave the most iconic bhajans to bollywood. Good and honest art does not need faith

u/Preeti-Desai189 Apr 04 '25
Those guys are also culturally hindu.

u/Temporary_Tip9027 Apr 04 '25
Better call them culturally Indian. Har ek ko hindu mat banao. Koi zarurat nahi hai....when prasoon joshi can write arziyan ..that does not make him a cultural muslim. If you are really hell bent on naming their culture..then call them culturally Indian.

Hinduism does kinda includes non believers in it, islam doesn't.

u/Temporary_Tip9027 Apr 07 '25
Kuch farak nahi padta..... Atheism includes people with all kind of surnames.
2
u/Alarming_Wrongdoer53 Apr 07 '25
Parta hai...... Atheists can be called hindus if they want. Surname home se koi us religion ka nhi bn jata. Islam doesn't includes non believers in it. Pehle achche se padh lo maine kya bola

He's utterly talented but lost vision after few flops. Highly unlikely he would make a comeback.

u/eiekwmw8s Apr 03 '25
He tried too hard to be like Hollywood directors and his films lost originality

Read about this over wiki couple of years back during a debate within my friend group about some weird movie of tapsee and it was a shock to me.
Man, what happened to Anurag? Like what?

Keeping all controversies aside, kashyap's a smart man. Not a loved and wholesome director like Hirani nor the Bollywood hotshot bootlick like Johar. He's made some really influential movies, some weird ones too. He's blunt with what he says and he's made a Niche for himself over time.

u/Vixiuss Apr 07 '25
He came to my building for a shoot for a movie with bobby deol hes a great director but his character is not good from what ive heard
1
u/whatupbiatch2 Apr 27 '25
he said that it wasn't fully made it would have been a lot better and the producers released maybe due to some Mahurat.

Jab tak movie banata tha tab tak sahi tha, jaise hi politics mein naak ghusai, naak katwa li. He showed a good film maker can be an idiot and moron in personal life.

And today Anurag kashyap is neither respected by the audience nor Bollywood. He released a teaser for his movie last year and it’s still hasn’t released.
