Apologizing to people on social media, Anurag Kashyap wrote on Instagram, ‘I forgot my limits while replying to someone in anger. And spoke ill of the entire Brahmin community.

He further said, ‘Many intellectuals, whom I respect, are hurt by my way of speaking, which I did not want to say, but wrote in anger while responding to someone’s cheap comment. I apologize to all my colleagues, friends, my family, and our society for my way of speaking, for using indecent language. Now I will work on it so that it doesn’t happen again. I will work on my anger. And if I have to talk about the issue, I will use the right words. Hope you will forgive me.’
