Anupam came to his defense and claimed that it was not easy to build and maintain an empire like YRF movies.
Anupam Kher Defends Yash Raj Films After Anurag Kashyap Blames Aditya Chopra For Recent YRF Film Debacle
In an interview with Siddharth Kannan, when the veteran actor was promoted: Karthikeya 2 with the star cast, Anupam Kher said, “I am very, very proud of Aditya Chopra. Yash ji’s family is like my own family. It’s not easy to build an empire like Yash Raj Films. It’s easy for people to comment. I don’t want to pass judgment again on what he said. He is not the ultimate authority on human behavior.”
His comment comes after Anurag Kashyap spoke about Yash Raj Films’ recent string of flops. Their last 3 releases with superstars like Ranveer Singh in Jayeshbhai JordaarAkshay Kumar in Samrat Prithvirajand Ranbir Kapoor – Sanjay Dutt in shamshera turned out to be box office disasters. To address the issue, the filmmaker had told Galatta Plus: “You have one person sitting in a cave, who doesn’t know the outside world, dictating how everyone should make their movies and telling them what to do. If Aditya Chopra has hired a lot of people, he should empower them and not dictate, not control the casting, not control everything. Sit in your office, hire good people if you trust them, and let them make their movie – and that’s the mistake he makes! He won’t leave them alone.”
Anupam Kher was part of some of the biggest YRF movies like Dilwale Dulhania Le Jayenge, Darr, lamheamong other things.
