Anurag Kashyap may not have pleased critics at the box office, however, the director is not taking no for an answer.After a number of reviews from movie critics lambasting the movie for its tepid pace, Anurag Kashyap took to social media to vent out his feelings about "Bombay Velvet" and his decisions regarding the same.Writing in a Facebook post that he didn’t regret doing the movie, "This is the film i wanted to make and i am glad i got to make it. I am very happy that all those who have been part of this journey firmly stand with it. No i am not depressed or hiding, this has taught us a lot and is my absolute personal favourite, there have been no regrets whatsoever.”Starring Ranbir Kapoor and Anushka Sharma, the movie "Bombay Velvet" received critical reviews from movie reviewers. Addressing the same he wrote,"a lot of people do not connect with it and a small number of people did. Maybe when the shock of the narrative wears down , you will revisit it in the calm of your homes and will get into it. Maybe our experimenting with the narrative didn't work for most but i firmly believe in the film. "Saying that he would not back down just because of the reaction to his movies, he wrote, “Films is what i breathe, what i live for, does not matter where i go and where i stay , i will only make films , and no i am not done with making films in and about my country, rest is just a little detour. none of you need to worry about me, we have survived so much, have been standing 22 years in the face of adversity and rejection. and i am still free with my choices. Bombay Velvet has been worth all the heart ache and pain and a memory to cherish for life. i love you all so much and i also feel all your love. Let my silence not worry any of you. i am solid, we are solid. The Applause or Brickbats do not matter, what matters is who is standing in the arena. its us who go out there and risk it, its us who choose not to take the easy route, its us who stand tall when they let the lions loose on us, we are and will be the gladiators." Its time to close the book and move on. its been a journey, as if one life is over with Bombay Velvet. a lot of people... Posted by Anurag Kashyap on Sunday, 17 May 2015
