Film director Anurag Kashyap was called on Kapil Sharma‘s show after his film Gangs of Wasseypur completed 10 years. For those who don’t know, this gangster drama film was released in two parts in the year 2012. This film gave Anurag Kashyap recognition as one of the leading directors in the country. Many actors working in this film won the hearts of the audience with their strong acting. Reminiscing the old days, the film director was joined by his cast Manoj Bajpayee, Piyush Mishra, Nawazuddin Siddiqui, Huma Qureshi, Vineet Kumar and Pankaj Tripathi on the The Kapil Sharma Show. In that episode, he made a shocking revelation about actor Vicky Kaushal.

For the unversed, before his debut in Masaan, Vicky Kaushal was the assistant director of Gangs of Wasseypur. While narrating an anecdote in Kapil Sharma Show, Anurag Kashyap said that Vicky Kaushal had to go to jail during the shooting of the film. ‘We were shooting in a real location without permission. Once we were shooting we got to know that it’s illegal sand mining. Yes!
