Anurag Kashyap’s 2013 movie Ugly is one of the most sensitive films he has ever directed. The movie explored the sordid aftermath of an actor’s kidnapped daughter. Rahul Bhat was seen in the main lead in the film. The piece of big news is that the movie is all set to get a sequel but with a twist. The sequel will not be directed by Anurag Kashyap. Yes, you have read it right.
Ajay Bahl will be directing Ugly 2 while Anurag Kashyap will continue to be the co-producer of the proposed franchise.
In an interview with Spotboye, Ajay Bahl shared the details of Ugly 2. The filmmaker said, “I actually went to Anurag with script, a thriller which is dark and yet illuminated by a sense of immediacy and relevance. Anurag loved it. I wish I can tell you more about the story. All I can say is, it is nothing like anything seen in the genre of topical thrillers.”
