Anurag Kashyap Reveals He Cried ‘Non-Stop For 10 Days’ After Daughter Aaliyah’s Wedding; Says ‘Wanted To Leave…’

Renowned filmmaker Anurag Kashyap’s daughter Aaliyah got married in December in a big bash wedding. Kashyap recently opened up about his emotional journey after his daughter’s wedding. He also shared that he was so overwhelmed during the wedding rituals that he wanted to leave everything. Anurag Kashyap mentioned that it was filmmaker Vikramaditya Motwane who stopped him from leaving the venue. Anurag revealed that he cried for 10 after Aaliyah’s wedding. For the unversed, Aaliyah is the daughter of Anurag with his first wife Aarti Bajaj. The YouTuber got hitched to Shane Gregoire on December 11 in Mumbai. 

In an interview with Hollywood Reporter India, Anurag said “I had the same feeling when my daughter was born. I don’t know why I cried so much, but I cried. Same thing at her wedding. I think I cried non-stop for 10 days. I don’t know why, and in front of random people.” 

He continued, “Suddenly, I stopped drinking, I stopped crying, everything just stopped. I think this was a big catharsis for me, which went on for 10 days.” 

“At my daughter’s wedding, after the varmala and havan was done, I couldn’t handle it. I was so overwhelmed and emotional, I wanted to leave the wedding, even before the reception began. And I was going out but he (Vikramaditya Motwane) stopped me. He took me out, we went for a long walk and then we came back,” he added. 

Earlier, Anurag also shared some pictures from the wedding where he can be seen performing ritual with his first wife  Aarti Bajaj. In the post, the filmmaker wrote on Instagram “Ye bhi gayi .. @shanegregoire my Silly take care of her . And i will get back to my stubborn self . Thank you @artb and @rheadewan for making it happen so beautifully. Thank you everyone for coming.” Aaliyah’s husband Shane Gregoire commented, “You have my word, my Filly.”
