Kashyap vs. Jha: A Bollywood Bromance Gone Bust?

Looks like there’s some masala brewing in Bollywood! Actor Pankaj Jha, known for his recent role in Panchayat, threw some serious shade at director Anurag Kashyap (remember Gangs of Wasseypur?). Jha accused Kashyap of being a “spineless” dude who didn’t keep his word on a casting promise.
Jha claims he was busy filming when Kashyap approached him for a role in Gangs of Wasseypur, but by the time he got back, Pankaj Tripathi had snagged the part. Now, Jha’s wondering if he could’ve been the next big thing, just like Tripathi!
Kashyap, on the other hand, remembers things differently. Apparently, Jha was chilling at an Osho retreat when the Gang of Wasseypur crew needed him most. Kashyap says they had a tight budget and couldn’t wait around, but hey, maybe Jha’s just feeling a little “what if” after all these years. ♂️

Things got even spicier when Jha called himself a “director-making actor” and took a dig at Kashyap’s hustle. Ouch! But wait, there’s a twist! Jha now claims his words were twisted and he never mentioned Tripathi at all. The plot thickens… ️♂️
So, who do you believe? Was there a casting snafu or is this just a misunderstanding? ¯_(ツ)_/¯ One thing’s for sure, this Bollywood drama is more entertaining than some reality shows!
