What Anurag had said about leaving Mumbai

Last month, speaking with The Hindu, the filmmaker confirmed that he has ‘left Mumbai’ and called Bollywood “toxic”. Reportedly, Anurag relocated to Bangalore. He had said, “I want to stay away from film people. The industry has become too toxic. Everyone is chasing unrealistic targets, trying to make the next ₹500 or ₹800 crore film. The creative atmosphere is gone.”

Anurag will be seen in Dacoit – Ek Prem Katha as a cop. Directed by Shaneil Deo in his directorial debut, the project is produced by Supriya Yarlagadda, co-produced by Suniel Narang, and presented by Annapurna Studios.
