Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who has also acted in feature films
like "Akira", says he chose to star in the short film "Churri" because of
actress Tisca Chopra. But she ended up "misusing" him.

Select Large Short Films is set to premiere four short films at the 19th Jio
MAMI Mumbai Film Festival with Star this month. The platform will screen
"Anukul" by Sujoy Ghosh, "Death of a Father" by Chaitanya Tamhane, "Churri" by
Mansi Nirmal Jain and "Juice" by Neeraj Ghaywan.
"I did 'Churri' only
because Tisca asked me to. Also because I am a big fan of 'Chutney' (her short
film). I like what she is trying to do in the short film space and I told her to
use me, but she ended up misusing me," Anurag said in a statement.
Talking about the short film space, the "Dev.D" director said: "Short films are
the future and that space is getting super competitive. A lot of future artistes
will be known for what they do in that space."
"Churri" features the
story of a couple where the philandering husband has an affair outside of his
marriage. The plot of the movie will create curiosity in the minds of the viewer
when the wife confronts the mistress and an unusual and surprising twist
transpires.
