Anurag Kashyap said that the Hindi films "stopped being original" and started looking like "cheap copies of Hollywood films", while movies from the South "still look like Indian films". Kashyap praised filmmaker SS Rajamouli and his film 'RRR'. Talking about the film's song 'Naatu Naatu', which got nominated for Oscars, Kashyap said that it is "incredibly" hard to pull off.
