Personal Quote:

[June 2009 - When asked if he thinks that directors go too far to prove themselves different from others and go on to make the tale in a more complex way then it should and if he has been the victim of the same, given his movies being far too unconventional for his times] I just stay the way I am. To prove anything is not my thing. See more »

Trivia:

Anurag was writing a story and screenplay for a film titled "The Girl Who'd Sleep With Anyone". He decided to shelve the film when he could not get the right's to the film's title. They were with Haruki Murakami. He later used parts of the screenplay for Kalki's character in Dev D. See more »

Trademark:

Most of his movies deal with very realistic scenarios and take excerpts from the scandals seen in newspapers in day to day life (eg the Joshi-Abhayankar Pune murder case reference in Paanch (2003), the 1993 Mumbai blasts in Black Friday (2004), the black BMW accident and MMS scandal in Dev.D (2009)) See more »
