Filmmaker Abhinav Kashyap has publicly discussed the difficult relationship he shares with his elder brother, the acclaimed director Anurag Kashyap, revealing that the two are currently not on talking terms. His comments shed light on a long-standing and complex sibling dynamic that has led to a significant rift between the two.
Abhinav emphasized that his connection with Anurag runs deep, stemming from a shared past. He explained that they grew up together, attending the same boarding school in Gwalior and the same college in Delhi University. They even arrived in Mumbai around the same time to pursue careers in the film industry.
According to Abhinav, they are exceptionally close and "know each other better than our own parents know us." This shared history, however, hasn't shielded their relationship from turmoil.
A key point of tension Abhinav highlighted was a history of physical disputes. He acknowledged that they have "argued regularly" throughout their lives. He specifically claimed that Anurag, being the older brother, has often "raised his hand on me" and "beaten me many times" when Anurag felt his younger brother had made a mistake. Abhinav stated that he, out of respect for his elder sibling, never retaliated.
The director of Dabangg explained that their decision to stop speaking came after a recent and final disagreement. Abhinav felt that Anurag was the one who was at fault during their last conversation, leading him to unilaterally cut off ties. He stressed that their estrangement is a "personal" and "emotional matter."
Despite the fallout, Abhinav still holds a degree of respect for his brother. He acknowledged that Anurag is his "guru" who taught him much of what he knows about filmmaking.
He also addressed public chatter, including rumors or memes, that suggested Anurag had commented on Abhinav's mental health.
Abhinav noted that a lot of comments are often "misattributed to him, or have been taken out of context," and he chooses not to get upset by what Anurag says because of his status as the older brother. He added that retaliating publicly would upset their parents.
In a final, albeit humorous, message to Anurag, Abhinav suggested that a maternal reprimand awaits him. He jokingly warned Anurag to go home because their mother is waiting for him with all the "old chappals (slippers) and old utensils" she has collected, implying that she is ready to scold him over their ongoing conflict. This part of his statement adds a touch of typical Indian family drama to what is otherwise a serious public airing of a private sibling dispute.
