Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who directed Rahul’s previous film Ugly in 2014, tweeted praising Union Leader and his performance by saying: “You are totally reinventing yourself.”
Asked how it feels to receive such support from the industry, Rahul told media persons here on Thursday: “Directors like Anurag Kashyap, Prakash (Jha), Sudhir (Mishra)… They all like these kinds of films. This is realistic cinema. It’s very important that influential people in the industry support, appreciate and promote this kind of cinema. And I feel very happy about that.”
