Anurag Kashyap has shared his thoughts after watching Accused, which is directed by his sister Anubhuti Kashyap.

In his note, Anurag said, “Proud of you my @anubhuti_k. You’re going to have a great career. Good in you can’t be suppressed and I can see the rest which is not you in what will be a private conversation. Love you always. Keep fighting slowly with your work and not like me, and one day your voice will come out intact.”
