Anurag Kashyap talks about working with Animal star Ranbir Kapoor

While talking to an online entertainment news portal, Anurag Kashyap who is yet to watch Animal was asked about working with Ranbir Kapoor again. Seeing all the hullabaloo around Animal, Anurag asks who wouldn't want to work with him. Ranbir has proved his mettle as an actor yet again with Sandeep Reddy Vanga's Animal. However, Anurag is a little sceptic. After the debacle of Bombay Velvet, it took a lot of time to accept the fate of the movie. He explains that he doesn't have a formula to make a blockbuster film. And whenever a star experiments, the filmmaker and the star, both get flak.

Anurag further discussed how fan clubs keep warring between themselves all the time and how when one doesn't cater to the fan clubs who see their star in a certain light, filmmaking becomes difficult. Kashyap honestly adds that he doesn't have the skill set to cater to every section of the audience. "Aur mere andar woh himmat nahi hai ki main itni gaali khayu uss aadmi k liye jiski itni badi fan following hai," he says adding what if he lets down. There's no definite answer about when a film can be a blockbuster. However, after so many years, Anurag claims he has realised that making a blockbuster film skill is not in his hands. The filmmaker promises to deliver what he says in his script within the range of budget but if it becomes a blockbuster it would be by chance.
