Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap’s recent comments about Brahmins amid the ongoing Phule film controversy have sparked outrage and led to an FIR being filed against him. Now, a Brahmin leader has offered a Rs 1 lakh reward to anyone who blackens the 'Gangs of Wasseypur' director’s face.
Following Kashyap's remarks, Suresh Mishra of the Chanakya Sena and Akhil Bhartiya Brahman Mahasabha announced the reward of Rs 1 lakh, condemning Kashyap for his "anti-Brahmin" comments. Reportedly, an online meeting was held to discuss the matter, attended by several Brahmin organizations, including the Sarva Brahmin Mahasabha, Brahmin Seva Sangh, Vishwa Brahmin Parishad, and others.
