On Anurag Kashyap’s birthday, it’s time to revisit the films that made him one of Bollywood’s most distinctive filmmakers. Over the years, Anurag has created some of Hindi cinema’s most memorable stories, from crime dramas to dark thrillers and unusual love stories.
One of his biggest successes remains Gangs of Wasseypur, the two-part crime saga that became a cult favourite. Black Friday showcased his intense and realistic storytelling, while Dev.D gave the classic Devdas story a modern and colourful twist.
His other must-watch films include Ugly, a gripping thriller about a missing child, and Raman Raghav 2.0, a dark psychological crime drama starring Nawazuddin Siddiqui and Vicky Kaushal.
On his special day, these films are a perfect reminder of why Anurag Kashyap’s cinema continues to stand apart.
