Director Anurag Kashyap and producer Aanand L Rai found themselves on opposite sides of battlelines when the latter decided to delete three scenes from Manmarziyaan, after certain Sikh groups raised objections against them. Abhishek Bachchan, one of the lead actors of the love story, broke his silence on the subject at the Jagran Cinema Summit yesterday.
"I think each individual is allowed to react the way he wants to. It [deletion of scenes] is not a big deal for me because my film isn't about anyone smoking. More importantly, the intention of making a film is not to upset anybody. I have no problems deleting a couple of scenes if they don't affect the narrative and if it helps in placating somebody," said Bachchan.
