Anurag Kashyap reacts to Abhay Deol calling him 'liar' and ‘toxic person’, says he's ready to apologise

A day after actor Abhay Deol recently called Anurag Kashyap 'a liar' and 'toxic person' during an interview, the filmmaker has responded to his statements. He shared he was ready to apologise again.

The duo had worked together on the cult classic ‘Dev D’ (2009. In a 2020 interview, Anurag had claimed that working with Abhay had been a ‘painfully difficult’ experience.

Abhay, who is currently being praised for his role in Netflix web series ‘Trial By Fire’, said in an interview had indicated that Anurag shared a bunch of lies regarding his attitude and privilege as a Deol during the making of ‘Dev D’. Calling the filmmaker ‘a liar and a toxic person’, Abhay said that he would warn people about him.

Now, speaking with Midday, Anurag has said that he had already apologised to Abhay and that he was ready to do it again. He said, ‘It is okay if that is how he feels. Everyone has his own version of the truth. Maybe he felt attacked about what I had spoken about him earlier. I have personally apologised to him for hurting his feelings.’

He further added, ‘What I said was what he was [like] in the past. We all evolve with time. He has done a great job in [Trial by Fire]. I think it is time to celebrate his strong performance rather than playing the ping-pong of who said what.’
