In an Instagram story, Huma Qureshi jokingly accused Amit Trivedi and Anurag Kashyap of ripping off her song. So Anurag Kashyap said, “Never released it.”
In the caption, she posted a scene from Anurag’s upcoming romantic drama Almost Pyaar With DJ Mohabbat and declared, “I am suing Amit Trivedi and Anurag Kashyap.” Anurag re-uploaded it and commented, “Hahaha and never releasing it.”
Huma can thank Anurag for her first professional opportunity. She played a role in the film Gangs of Wasseypur, and she did a fantastic job.
Anurag, in a conversation with DJ Mohabbat about Almost Pyaar, remarked, “With the help of amazing collaborators like my DP Sylvester and my PD Shazia and everyone else involved, this film is a true labour of love featuring some amazing young actors, great energy, and great music by Amit Trivedi. In doing so, I am returning to my ongoing investigation of connections to the generation that will ultimately come to define us and shape our future. Love is the subject, along with the myriad forms of discrimination that can be directed against it. With this movie, I feel ready to take the next step in my life.”
