Film director Anurag Kashyap has batted for “prioritising our own films” as he slammed theatres for providing more shows to the recent Hollywood hit ‘Obsession’.Kashyap shared a post on his Instagram story on Saturday. He said that last week his directorial ‘Bandar’, featuring Bobby Deol, didn’t get enough shows and now films such as Imtiaz Ali’s ‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’, Singeetam Srinivasa Rao’s ‘Sing Geetham’ and Manoj Bajpayee starrer-‘Governor’ are getting limited slots.”I totally understand that everyone wants to see ‘OBSESSION’, but it can still run longer with lesser shows. If we don’t prioritise our own films with better showcasing, then I don’t understand how will we grow,” he wrote.Kashyap noted that our films are not getting enough shows, whereas ‘Obsession’ is dominating several slots.”Last week it was with ‘Bandar’, this week with ‘Main Vaapas Aaunga’, ‘Sing Geetham’ and ‘Governor’…while ‘Obsession’ is in 6-7 shows,” he added.‘Obsession’ is directed by Curry Barker and features Michael Johnston as Bear Bailey and Inde Navarrette as Nikki Freeman.
