Anurag Kashyap shares a list of 2018 films that made him 'Jealous', here's how his fellow filmmakers react

Bollywood filmmaker Anurag Kashyap is known to be very particular when it comes to things of his interest, to be specific, films. The director on Wednesday, January 2, penned down a number of films, released in 2018, that he found 'jealously worthy'. He took to Twitter and shared a list of films that he claims to have amazingly crafted and it included names like- 'Mulk', 'Badhai Ho', 'Manto', 'Andhadhun', 'Tumbaad', and 'Pataakha' among others. 

In the post he stated that that he doesn't think there has been so many good films made in Hindi in recent times and said, "Hindi films of 2018 that made me jealous - in no particular order. Mulk, Badhai Ho, Manto, Andhadhun, Tumbaad, Mard ko Dard Nahin Hota, Soni, Omertà, October, I don’t think there has been so many good films made in Hindi in recent times. Cheers to us.."

He also added Radhika Madan, Sanya Malhotra and Sunil Grover starrer 'Pataakha' to the list, saying, "And Patakha .. forgot to add that to the list .."
