In a strongly worded Instagram Story, Kashyap shared his thoughts on the show allocations for his own directorial Bandar, Vedang Raina and Sharvari’s Main Vaapas Aaunga, Manoj Bajpayee’s Governor, and the Telugu film Sing Gheetham. He wrote, “I totally understand that everyone wants to see Obsession, but it can still run longer with fewer shows. If we don't prioritise our own films with better showcasing, then I don't understand how we will grow.”
