Piyush Mishra recently made some shocking statements claiming that he does not talk to Anurag Kashyap and Naseeruddin Shah. He shared that Anurag speaks a lot and that is the problem, he and Shah do not like each other
Anurag Kashyap and Piyush Mishra
Veteran actor-singer Piyush Mishra has worked with filmmaker Anurag Kashyap on a cult classic, Gangs of Wasseypur (2012), together. However, his recent statements indicate that the two have never shared a good or even cordial bond off-screen. Known for their strong personalities and voicing their unfiltered views, they have often found themselves at odds. Not only Kashyap, Piyush also shares a similar equation with Naseeruddin Shah.
Piyush Mishra on Anurag Kashyap
During a recent interaction with Shubhankar Mishra, Piyush Mishra was asked to choose between Imtiaz Ali and Anurag Kashyap as a collaborator. He quickly answered without a thought, saying, “Imtiaz Ali, any day. He is a great director and writes amazing scripts. I feel immense satisfaction after working with him."
Meanwhile, talking of Anurag Kashyap, he further added, "Anurag also does it, but… How shall I define Anurag Kashyap for you? Why does he talk so much? He does wrong to himself unnecessarily. You should either do good to yourself or the other person, but he doesn’t even think of himself. That’s his problem," he said.
Mishra further went on to describe his working relationship with Kashyap, clarifying that while creative alignment exists, they are not at all compatible on a personal level.
“If you are going against something, then there should at least give results. The main thing is that he knows he won’t get any result, he still speaks a lot. Mujhe zabardast virodh hai usse. We barely communicate – I can’t talk to him for a longer period, and neither can he. We don’t talk, only shoot for films. But, we work well together, we both know what we want. He also used to abuse me earlier, but only I do it now," Piyush said.
Piyush Mishra on his equation with Naseeruddin Shah
Piyush Mishra went on to open up about another complicated relationship within the industry. He named Naseeruddin Shah as someone he does not get along with.
“I don’t have good relations with Naseer. Neither I like him, nor he likes me. And, if both the parties don’t like each other, then it becomes an ideal stage to not talk, because you both know that you don’t like each other, so there’s just no need to talk," he said.
