His response came around the controversial blockbuster Animal featuring Ranbir Kapoor, which has been sparking debate for glorifying misogyny and toxic masculinity.
The filmmaker challenged Bollywood insiders to take the name of one of the producers or directors, who hasn't spoken negatively in private about a big star. 'Do they have the courage to say anything in public? They don't. So they deserve to suffer," he said, adding, 'Do phir Rs 150 crore ghatiya kaam ke, sadi hui acting ke."
