Shubhra Shetty on dating Anurag Kashyap, their 20-year age gap: ‘My mom calls him bakra’

Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap and his girlfriend Shubhra Shetty have discussed their 20-year age gap and first relationship in a recent interview. The couple revealed that their relationship was outed by a journalist, despite their efforts to stay away from media attention. Shubhra mentioned that her mother calls Anurag "bakra," referring to him as stupid, while Anurag shared that Shubhra visited his village in Uttar Pradesh during his post-Bombay Velvet shoot, where she enjoyed a cultural experience.

The pair decided to move to Bengaluru when Shubhra relocated in 2018-19, and Anurag's depression lifted upon moving there.
