Sudhir Mishra directorial Afwaah, backed by Anubhav Sinha and Bhushan Kumar, stars Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Bhumi Pednekar and Sumeet Vyas.
The film talks about using social media to create fake news and spreading hatred and civil unrest.
Anurag Kashyap took to his social media profile and shared “You agree with the film or not, be it propaganda, counter propaganda, offensive or not, to ban it is just wrong. You want to fight propaganda. Then go in numbers and see the film that talks against misuse of social media and how inherent prejudice is weaponised to create hatred and unrest. It’s running in cinemas and is called “Afwaah”. Go make your voice stronger. Go make a point. That’s the right way to fight”
In his earlier post, Anurag Kashyap praised the film and dedicated his next venture, Kennedy to filmmaker Sudhir Mishra.
He wrote, “The original maverick of Hindi cinema , the man I dedicate my next film to @iamsudhirmishra has made a banger of a film. It touches upon, everything that’s wrong with us today, where the social media has brought us. The lies we put out, how it affects all of us and can’t be taken back, the world then has to just breathe in and deal with the consequences. Being a good person and the good person’s silence is not a virtue anymore. Armed with brilliant performances across the board, Afwaah” has released today in the cinemas and is an absolutely unmissable film. @anubhavsinhaa @bhumipednekar @sumeetvyas @nawazuddin._siddiqui @mrfilmistaani @tjbhanu @eishachopra Very well done. Congratulations”
Anurag Kashyap’s next Kennedy stars Rahul Bhat, Megha Burman and Sunny Leone. It revolves around an insomniac ex-cop who dwells in different circumstances looking for redemption. The ex-cop, who is presumed dead for a long time, operates secretly for the corrupt system.
