Anurag Kashyap fires back at Abhay Deol's 'Dev.D' criticism

Renowned filmmaker Anurag Kashyap has addressed actor Abhay Deol's recent critique of their joint venture, Dev.D. Deol had previously accused Kashyap of "glorifying" the film's "toxic main character." In a recent interview, Kashyap conceded that the protagonist of Dev.D is indeed a "toxic misogynist," but defended his approach to character development. He also suggested that audiences have become excessively "woke" and need to introspect on their expectations from cinema.
