Actor Ranvir Shorey, director Anurag Kashyap lock horns on Twitter
It began after Ranvir took a shot at independent filmmakers who have now gone mainstream in Bollywood.
In his tweet, Shorey didn't name anyone, but alleged hypocrisy on the part of a few filmmakers.

It led to a war of words between the two. Ranvir responded to Kashyap saying: "I always say what I mean, @anuragkashyap72, you know that. And I don't think what I've said lacks any clarity. It pretty much explains everything. As for taking names, that's beneath me. I'm not trying to sling mud, but just reminding people where they come from."
To which, Kashyap replied: "So let's talk. Right here. Whose flunky you think I am? Dont mix the pain of your past relationship with this debate. I will say everything here .. the correction is needed in this industry like every industry. I operate alone .. bolo."

Kashyap claimed that he has worked with many outsiders, and stressed that he will not allow anyone to change the narrative of the debate going on in Bollywood at the moment.
He wrote: "And no one works with outsiders more than me .. and I can see what's wrong with all that is going on and I see the game. Being played and people being used. Trust me I am not gutted by what you said, no one could gut me in 27 years .. and I am absolutely calm.. And I will say this clearly - I am speaking here with you because I won't allow you or anyone to distract or change the narrative of how the industry is being used. I won't allow you to change or create the perception about me and make. Anyone believe otherwise. I will stand here and speak up."
Ranvir shared that Kashyap is "making the mistake of carrying the mantle of "independent film crusader" all by himself.
"Let me remind you, independent cinema has been and always will be more than you. So you be you, and let others be themselves. Don't belittle others when they're crying out," he shared.

Ranvir refused to back down.
"How many people are you belittling when you say they are 'distracting or changing the narrative'? Who are you to control the narrative? Everyone has the right to talk about their pain, just like you! And yes, your replies to me were unnecessary. I'm not here to make a spectacle," he shared.
Then, Kashyap said: "Okay. I buy that. You see Kangana's outburst as her pain. Fine. I will agree to disagree, Ranvir Shorey."
Ranvir concluded by saying, "Again, I wasn't mentioning any names, you are. Who is to say who is in real pain and who's an attention seeker? I'm just defending everyone's right to speak their own truth. Just like you do. You can agree or disagree."
