Explaining how his film is an out-and-out commercial experience, he said: &quot;For the first time, I have made a film for the masses and we are going to Cannes (with the film). <img alt="" src="http://www.mid-day.com/imagedata/2012/may/Anurag-Kashyap_1.jpg" style="width: 500px; height: 337px; " /> People usually think when a movie goes to Cannes, it is an art movie. We have made a commercial film. It has taken me a lot of years to reach here. When you stop running after a butterfly, it comes and sits... it&#39;s the same thing.&quot; &quot;Gangs of Wasseypur&quot; is a gritty take on the coal mafia and stars Manoj Bajpayee, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Syed Zeeshan Quadri and Aditya Kumar. Kashyap&#39;s crime thriller &quot;Peddlers&quot; has also been selected for screenings at the prestigious festival. The filmmaker is happy with is experiments and choice of cinema. &quot;It is important for me to know where my audience is? What my audience is? And what they would like to see? Everyone used to tell me don&#39;t do this, don&#39;t do that. Today, I realised I was not wrong,&quot; he said.

After creating niche audiences with films like "Black Friday", "Dev D", and "That Girl In Yellow Boots", director-producer Anurag Kashyap now targets a larger audience with "Gangs of Wasseypur", which will be premiered at the ongoing 65th Cannes International Film Festival.
