Anurag Kashyap names his favourite mainstream Bollywood director 

Director Anurag Kashyap is the face of grounded and realistic style of cinema in Bollywood. He follows a not so mainstream approach to tell unique and off beat stories about our society. However, despite his popular image, Anurag says that he does enjoy watching mainstream cinema and that Rohit Shetty is one of his favourite directors.

In a recent conversation with Galatta Plus, Anurag said, "I enjoy watching mainstream a lot; good mainstream. Our mainstream today has become very bad, quality wise. The only person whose own self and honesty you see (in his films) is Rohit Shetty, which is why you enjoy him. The rest of them are just trying to copy what works, they are trying to be something else. Rohit has taken time to come into his own. He realised he is good at action, so he started controlling that, and it shows.”

Anurag further shared that he may not share similar ideology with Rohit but he cannot undermine his abilities as a mainstream filmmaker. He stated, "I will argue with his sensibility, I will argue with his politics, I will argue with other things. But he is as mainstream as Hindi cinema can get. Last was David Dhawan, who was a genre in himself. I call David Dhawan an auteur, because he genuinely created that (kind of cinema). Him and Govinda were a remarkable team. But nothing else… Nobody really understands the world they are living in.”

As of now, Rohit Shetty is busy working on his web show 'Indian Police Force' which will be an addition to his ambitious cop universe.
