Anurag Kashyap, godfather to aspiring filmmakers, a writer-producer-director whose stature has reached almost mythic proportions among his fanatic fans. Kashyap has scripted a success story fit for a Bollywood blockbuster.
The youngest boy in class is bullied by his peers.
Forlorn and dejected every day, he stands near an iml itree.
The boy aims stones at the low-hanging imli fruit.
One day, while he is taking aim, one of the bullies happens to be passing by and the stone hits him.
The Principal decides to let the boy go - 'He was seen trying to get the imli every day. He didn't mean it.'
A simple story. Right? But now comes the Anurag Kashyap twist. The boy was actually practising to miss the imli every day - hoping to hit the bully one day.
