Looks like filmmaker Anurag Kashyap won’t be forgetting the failure of Bombay Velvet anytime soon.
Kashyap who has been getting praises for his acting stint as the bad guy in Sonakshi Sinha-starrer Akira, believes that he somewhere betrayed Ranbir Kapoor’s trust in him via the bid budget disaster.
In a recent interview the filmmaker said:
I think we, as a team, have let him down in many ways. Ranbir is a fantastic artist, a brilliant human being and an actor who wanted to try out something different. He wanted to experiment which not many stars would want to do. And we failed him terribly. I feel completely responsible for this. Not just him, now when I hear studios shutting, I somewhere feel that I am definitely one of the reasons behind it. When the stories come up and there’s Bombay Velvet’s poster right at the top of the article, it does hurt.
