According to trade analyst Taran Adarsh, the Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma-starrer has collected Rs.10.30 crore since its release on Friday.
&ldquo;It's time to close the book and move on. It's been a journey, as if one life is over with 'Bombay Velvet'. A lot of people do not connect with it and a small number of people did... Maybe our experimenting with the narrative didn't work for most but I firmly believe in the film,&rdquo; Kashyap posted on Facebook on Sunday.
&ldquo;This is the film I wanted to make and I am glad I got to make it. I am very happy that all those who have been part of this journey firmly stand with it. No, I am not depressed or hiding, this has taught us a lot and is my absolute personal favourite, there have been no regrets whatsoever,&rdquo; he added.
Kashyap also thanked all those who were associated with &ldquo;Bombay Velvet&rdquo;.
&ldquo;Thank you for your pride and love in what we did together, the process was beautiful and we have all come back richer from it. I think I am very rich today for having so many friends and people in my life and their faith."
While many compared Kashyap's work in &ldquo;Bombay Velvet&rdquo; to that of Ram Gopal Verma's &ldquo;Aag&rdquo;, the filmmaker, however, did manage to receive some support from filmmakers Zoya Akhtar and Kunal Kohli.
Kashyap, who has previously made critically acclaimed films like &ldquo;Gangs of Wasseypur&rdquo;, &ldquo;Dev.D&rdquo; and &ldquo;Ugly&rdquo;, further added that leaving the criticism of &ldquo;Bombay Velvet&rdquo; behind, he is now looking forward to his next project and has no intentions to leave his director's chair.
He posted: &ldquo;Now let's get on to the next and let's kick a**. Films is what I breathe, what I live for, does not matter where I go and where I stay, I will only make films, and no I am not done with making films in and about my country, rest is just a little detour.
&ldquo;'Bombay Velvet' has been worth all the heart ache and pain and a memory to cherish for life... The Applause or Brickbats do not matter, what matters is who is standing in the arena. I WILL BE BACK.&rdquo;
