Anurag

Kashyap is all set to feature in Dacoit. He will be seen playing a negative role in the Adivi Sesh and Mrunal Thakur-starrer. Dacoit is releasing in theatres on April 10, 2026, amid the Dhurandhar 2 wave at the box office. In a recent interview, Anurag praised Ranveer Singh and said that the actor has a talent to play any character with a conviction. He recalled how Ranveer stapled his stomach to feel the pain of the gunshot in the Lootera climax. Kashyap’s revelation left Mrunal Thakur and Adivi Sesh in shock. For the unversed, the filmmaker produced the film, which also starred Sonakshi Sinha as the female lead.

Anurag Kashyap Is All Praise For Ranveer Singh

Ranveer Singh has been receiving a lot of praise for his performance in Dhurandhar and Dhurandhar The Revenge as Hamza Ali Mazari, aka Jaskirat Singh Rangi. Anurag Kashyap, who produced Ranveer’s Lootera, praised his conviction for the film during an interview with Miss Malini. He said that Dhurandhar-like films are coming out in which Arjun Rampal and Ranveer Singh hurt each other during the climax. The film got amazing numbers at the box office. He recalled working with Ranveer Singh in Lootera. At that time, Lootera was his second film, and Ranveer clipped his stomach to give a real feel to the climax.

Anurag revealed that nobody knew about his action until the shot was over. He was taken to hospital from the helicopter. “The film didn’t do the numbers of Dhurandhar. It is that man’s conviction and his thing for the craft that he didn’t tell anyone, and nobody could know until he could not get up,” Kashyap revealed. We must say, Ranveer Singh is a method actor and can do anything to make a scene real and powerful on the screen.
