Black Friday was a revolutionary film in India. Period.

[@TheRocknrolla12]

A movie like Black Friday, Is a achievement for the entirety of HUMANITY. Exceptional movie, there are no adjectives that can do justice to a film like Black Friday....mindboggling movie

[@kenilmonpara6320]

humanity to zyada ho gaya lamao

[@yt_bharat]

Lekin ye ban ho gayi thi netao dwara, censorship ka kya karoge

[@vaibhavkamble1]

I feel for this guy.. Life was too hard on him.. but he came out of it successfully inspite of all hardships he face only to release his first movie, which took almost 7 yrs to release.. what a patience man.. !!! #Respect

[@kritiksingh4754]

Finally I have heard something about anurag kashyap that I wanted to hear about him .... simply amazing

[@anasmohamed4222]

Hats off to Anurag Kashyap. His determination to persevere and continue making bold-rule-breaking films is commendable.

[@ishqlov5254]

Wow.. Anurag Kashyap is a true fighter. Very inspiring, if someone else was in his place in the earlier stage they wouldve comited suicide.

[@gss2129]

He is a very smart film maker. Genius of sorts. And a true game changer of hindi cinema in recent times. And yet he has no airs about himself. His passion for cinema is so evident in every interview.

[@Ravi-xf8dw]

brilliant director / writer.. feel sad for you sometime... you are genius...

[@vikhyathkamath]

One of the most inspirational stories I have heard in bollywood. If he can create such a masterpiece without the money then he can surely do wonders with a good budget. Can't wait for Bombay velvet!

[@directormak]

Vikhyath Kamath and He delivers Shit😂

[@neeleshbanerjee2012]

That was a piece of shit though

[@boombang5750]

+director mak It was not shit, it was not just not up to the level GOW, Ugly. It was much better than films like Once upon a time in Bombay Franchise and Shootout at Wadala film.

[@gss2129]

What makes a good movie is the sincerity of its story telling. Amazingly some of the best movies were made in the middle of some financial crunches. That struggle makes them more focussed on their story. Bombay Velvet was a mishap. He gave in to making film with bigwigs which diluted his inane umhindered film making process. So it was a result of too many cooks perhaps. It's heavily borrowed from some gangster themed Hollywood flicks. It would have worked better as a mini series today.. rather than a film. The characters needed more etching out. Also the lead pair story didn't have that zing to it. So things can/will go wrong if it's not meant to be. Murphy's law. even with the choicest ingredients u can end up making some expensive $hit.

[@BirenderSinghJalall]

And these 2 guys got us sacred games ❤️

[@navneetsingh511]

It not only honest but very insightful too

[@gss2129]

Thanks FC. One of your best segments. Getting to know the film making process from the masters themselves that too on their masterpieces and even more interesting was the fact that some of their best work came in the midst of a hundred storms at sea.

[@mohitlulla8868]

Salute to the great writer,director.

[@shweteshgamare2072]

3 directors who changed bollywood Anurag Kashyap, Vishal Bhardwaj, And Sriram Raghavan. I wish they could come together and make one of the epic film all the time.

[@macksequeira4233]

Add Rajkumar Hirani too 🤩

[@yunidhkumar5571]

@@macksequeira4233 nah he is just an entertainer , Has many scenes copied from Hollywood too

[@macksequeira4233]

@@yunidhkumar5571 don't blabber shit that you hear from people. What hollywood scenes he has copied. He is currently the best director in bollywood. Tum log bas hollywood ki chaat thei hi rehte ho , agar hirani sir ki safalta tumhe pachti nahi toh mat dekho na unki filmein. Apna samay kyu vyarth kar rahe ho. Agar chahe toh tumhare Hollywood wale bhi Munna Bhai, 3 Idiots aur PK jaisi behtareen filmein nahi bana sakti. PK jaise utkrisht film toh hollywood kathai nahi bana sakti 🌀🌀

[@toughesttakecoverbutnotme4404]

@shwetesh I think VV Chopra also hits the list of making independent cinema

[@joshiprabhas]

Hi everybody. I keep watching and rewatching black friday and there's one thing that intrigues me- how did Anurag sir shoot the blast sequences in this movie. the blasts in the movie look real - definitely not computer generated- so does anyone know how he shot those blast sequences. searched everywhere on the internet - couldnt find any thread discussing this.

[@usman5614]

Yeah ! i also can't understand how he did it. He does know how to fake things like rain sequence in GOW 1. But this can not be faked by close ups, background music and VFX. ! So you are an indian na.. Bro someday catch him at some panel discussion and ask it :D ... Don't forget to tell me ..

[@prithvisingh4479]

Hi! I'm not sure about it but this is just according to me AK has talked about tight budget on many instance... (tight budget doesn't mean zero rupees) Actually it was more than 1 Crore There is only 2 explosions in the film... (1 the stock exchange 2 the bus) And that's VFX but what is real is the aftermath i.e the people running, the burnt food stall. That is easy to create. SO overall it is a smart combination between the both.

[@yourbro8906]

Tare Zameen Par instead of Lage Raho Munna bhai and Black Friday can't be replaced

[@gurudeepranjan]

Udaan instead of Tare Zameen Par and yes Black Friday cannot be replaced

[@macksequeira4233]

LRMB and Taare Zameen Par are equally good as they have different perspective ✌️

[@mohitkumarrai5536]

Black Friday is masterpiece

[@namandevda8586]

Great movie, great director.

[@MattKaludi]

I think there is still more to go.. We need the full version Anupama... Please!

[@HELLBOY583]

How the fuck is it that 'no money', 'no budget', 'couldn't afford' etc keep cropping up so frequently in Anurag Kashyap's reminiscing and yet he's made some of the most impactful movies in modern times for India. Really, this guy is on a whole different level altogether. And btw, Black Friday is my favourite out of his work. Keep rocking, sir.

[@orkoprobhobhaduri7344]

He is a madness lover, but a very powerful story teller. Now that he finally has the platform he seeked for so so long, more than anyone else in this country, I hope he finds a good enough story, or is supplied, as in the case of marquee gangs of wasseypur, and gets the world of appreciation he deserves

[@anupmishra4752]

My favourite movie I have watched it 21 times can go on...

[@djshelin]

i guess this is a re-upload . but im glad i watched it again , anurag kashyap is really an inspiration , but i donno why he don't keep his stand when it comes to No-Smoking , the movie is not everybody's cup of tea , but i really loved it and i think its one of the best noir/fantasy indian movie ever according to me .in my view one bad movie anurag did was shaitan .

[@obedrossi]

dj shelin He only produced it

[@djshelin]

Kshitij Salve - he directed it www.imdb.com/title/tt0995740/

[@obedrossi]

dj shelin True, he directed No Smoking but you wrote about Shaitan which you didn't like.

[@djshelin]

Kshitij Salve - oh ok . got that . yes u r ryt .

[@sayantanpanda4028]

Agreed.. No smoking was one of a kind... Nd surrealism is not something everyone will get..

[@snehithkumbla1807]

Cinema gold. Iconic to watch in a theatre back then...

[@abhiramiyer4543]

Anurag Sir inspiring person

[@chandermotwani3493]

[@Sahebabdullah]

Anurag Kashyap is a genius

[@abinn88]

Release paanch good quality on Netflix

[@chetan1710]

black Friday gulaal, dev d and even no smoking- this guy was a cinematic genius, but then one day a bad spell was cast upon him and he came in company of karan johar and since then there was always some or the other thing which has been missing in his films, none of his films post dev D except GOW have made an impact.

[@kushsrivastava418]

the movie "Ugly", too.

[@pragadheeshnair4493]

What about ugly and raman raghav..

[@adityasen2281]

Watch Ugly, Raman Raghav, Mukkabazz !! All masterpieces !!

[@user-fk8md4jn3i]

My two most fav filmmakers Honestly hindi audience dont deserve them It breaks my heart when dabbang is preferred over udaan and race 3 over mukkhabaaz

[@ekulda]

This scene is taken frm the God Father. When the tough guy comes to meet Mr Corleone . He fumbles. Why no originality in Hindi films really beats me.

[@bhuvan1993]

Protege??

[@TheRocknrolla12]

If filmmakers like Mr. Anurag Kashyap is not allowed to ply his trade it is a disgrace for humanity. He must be given unlimited money and then asked to make films. If there are 20 movies by history will remember hindi cinema 5 of them are made by him. Only the greatest minds can come up with films like Raman Raghav 2.0, No smoking, Black Friday, Dev D and Gangs of Wasseypur.

[@nikhil1234raje]

The guy who is with Anurag is director of Lootera.

[@criticishan6969]

People now are just mad and crazy about films like black friday, gangs of wasseypur

Why can't they just talk in Hindi? Thats the language you guys are most comfortable at and your movies are...Who are you pretending to be? You guys have nothing to prove...your work speaks volumes.

[@Ovi1985]

globalwarming08 Completely agree with you on this buddy.

[@ashwinikumar2290]

To reach a wider audience?

[@sumitadvo2140]

ye bkl itni angrezi bolte hai..kya sochte hai inke interview BBC ya CNN par ayega..woh gorey dhekte bhi nahi inko..

[@adityasen2281]

Martin Scorsese, Danny Boyle, Quentin Tarantino all have seen his films and have been inspired by them. Slumdog Millionaire happened because Danny Boyle saw Black Friday and was inspired to make a film like that. So, yes he has international audience, they also watch his interviews and respect him more there than in our country !!

[@SC-mn4kz]

Faltu movie

[@don2186]

Its become a fashion to describe everything as a breakthrough, watershed and glorifying every little bit of creativity. Stop this self glorification nonsense and make good cinema. Good friday was a decent movie
