Anurag Kashyap comes out in support of 'The Tashkent Files', calls it bonafide sleeper hit of the yearMay 10 (AZINS) It is a very rare occasion when Anurag Kashyap would appreciate something on social media and in real life. His crticism and thumbs up are undoubtedly influential since people look at him for inspiration. In fact in a recent incident Anurag stood his ground and did not listen to a user, but rather claimed what he liked.

The user in news asked Anurag Kashyap to provide some work to Vivek Agnihotri. This user called the filmmaker 'jobless' and thus in need of work. The user even went on to leave the comment that Agnihotri is polutting the country very badly. Anurag however paid very little heed to the comment.

In fact in a savage manner, Anurag Kashyap gave it back to the user. Kashyap supported Agnihotri's film The Tashkent Files and wrote, "Whatever you say you can't take away from the fact that Taskent Files is the bonafide sleeper hit of the year. Personal prejudices aside."

The Tashkent Files is based on the mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of former Prime Minister Lal Bahadur Shastri. The film is directed by Vivek Agnihotri and stars Mithun Chakraborthy, Naseeruddin Shah, Shweta Basu Prasad, Pankaj Tripathi, Vinay Pathak, Mandira Bedi, Pallavi Joshi and Ankur Rathee in pivotal roles.
