In her latest post, Ekta Kapoor has indirectly slammed the Black Friday maker for his ‘saas-bahu’ remark.
In a strong post, Ekta Kapoor indirectly reacted to the ‘saas bahu’ comment made by Anurag Kashyap and spoke about the impact of the serials that had on the Indian masses. She even called him ‘classist’ for making such a remark. She wrote, “Ur so dumb… saying this put u on an advantage ‘I’m smarter cooler’ but naaaaaaaa! Darling how about gracious!!! N self aware?????? An art a lot of artists don’t have! ‘Saas bahu’ n their impact on Indian masses (how women got a voice in mass India) is well documented by a prestigious Chicago research! But artists who talk of an inclusive world are actually more classist.” It has made headlines in entertainment news.
Check out Ekta Kapoor’s complete post below:
It all started with Netflix’s CEO commenting on Nikhil Kamath’s podcast that launching Netflix India would have been ideal with more ‘populist’ show instead of Sacred Games. He mentioned that if he had to do it all over again, he would have parked Sacred Games for a couple of years later. This did not go down well with Anurag Kashyap who called him ‘dumb’ and sarcastically said that he should have started Netflix India with a ‘saas bahu’ show. In an Instagram post, Anurag Kashyap wrote, “He should have started with Saas Bahu .. he would have done well. Which he is doing now Z I always knew the tech guys are dumb when it comes to story telling but @tedsarandos is the definition of dumb is what I didn’t know.”
