Anurag Kashyap apologises after controversial comments on Brahmins

Anurag Kashyap apologises indirectly after controversial comments on Brahmins. Star filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is known for his bold and frank talk and at times his comments create controversy. His recent comments on Brahmins triggered a huge controversy and this forced him to apologise in an indirect manner.

He posted “This is my apology, not for my post but for that one line taken out of context and the brewing hatred. No action or speech is worth your daughter, family, friends and colleagues getting rape and death threats from the kingpins of sanskar (cultural values),"

He continued “So kahi hui baat wapis nahin li ja sakti our na loonga lekin mujhe jo gaali dena hai do. Mere parivaar ne na kuchh kaha hai na kahta hai. Isliye agar mujhse maafi hi chaahlye to ye meri apology hai. Brahmin log, auraton ko baksh do, itna sanskar to shastron mein bhi hai, sirf manuwaad mein nahin hai. Aap kaun se Brahmin ho tay kar lo. Baaki meri taraf se maafi (What is said can't be taken back, and I won't take it back either, but you can abuse me. My family hasn't said anything. If you want apology from me, this is it. Brahmins spare the women, such values are there in scriptures too, not only in manuwaad. Decide which Brahmin you are. Rest an apology from my side)," concluded his note. He captioned the post, "Manuwaadiyon aur gair sanskaari brahmino ke liye. Maafi (Apology for the Manuwaadiyon and Brahmins without values)."

Earlier he made controversial comments on Brahmins saying Replying to a comment saying that "Brahmins are your father", Anurag had written, "Brahmin pe main m*******a..koi problem (I'll pee on the Brahmins...any problem)?" He wrote along with it, "Jawab toh sab ne padh liya.. outrage bhi kar hi rahe haain ..aag laga rakhi hai .. Context bhi dekh likh to darpokon .. saari zindagi shastron ke peeche chhupe rehne waali sabse aalsi log jo kuchh pate ka kaam nahin karte sirf doosron ko neecha dikha ke, khud ko bada bolte hain. Mere liye to bhai tum log c****** hi rahoge (Everyone has read the answer..there is outrage too. See the context, too, cowards. Hiding behind scriptures for life, laziest people who don't do anything significant, humiliate others, and speak highly about themselves. You will be fools for me)."
