Ever since Jagga Jasoos release, there were speculations that Rishi Kapoor is not happy with Anurag Basu and all is not well between Ranbir Kapoor and Anurag. Ranbir not only features in the film, but also made his debut as a producer. Rishi lashed out at Anurag in his interaction with a daily and said, “He (Anurag) is such an irresponsible director that he doesn’t complete the film.
It was supposed to release three times in the past two years, but it kept getting delayed.” The actor thinks that the delay was caused by the director as he continued reshooting and editing it. “Honestly, Neetu and I saw the film only a day ahead of the release. Till Wednesday, Anurag was still mixing the film. Can you imagine that? Pritam probably delivered the music only a week before.
Today’s filmmakers are doing this with everybody. They don’t show their films before release to take opinions and treat it as if they’re making a nuclear bomb,” Talking about how Anurag has spoiled his relation with Govinda, he says, “Ranbir hasn’t held back on spending money.
You even threw Govinda out of the film. If you don’t want him to work in your film, why did you ask him? Iss sab mein Ranbir ka naam toh kharaab hoga, aur kya? Mera kharaab hoga. I totally agree with Ekta when she threw him out from her film. He had problems with Rakesh Roshan while working on Kites (2010),”
