Anurag Kashyap, the accomplished filmmaker, has expressed a sense of missed opportunities in his relationship with his daughter, Aaliyah, during her formative years. In a candid conversation with Film Companion, he disclosed that due to Aaliyah's frequent visits to his film sets and her friendship with Ida Ali, she naturally grew closer to filmmaker Imtiaz Ali, Ida's father, over time. Born in 2001 to Anurag and his ex-wife Aarti Bajaj, Aaliyah has since become engaged to Shaun Gregoire, marking the next chapter in her life.
He had been engaged in a rigorous routine of work, yoga, and swimming, feeling virtually invulnerable. But when his health took an unexpected turn, it became apparent that no amount of effort could prevent it. In that moment of vulnerability and isolation, he recognized how he had unintentionally isolated himself while relentlessly striving to make his films in his unique style, fighting tirelessly for creative control.
Despite these regrets, Anurag acknowledges that Aaliyah has forgiven him. He understands that the pursuit of making low-budget films demanded twice the effort, a sacrifice that Aaliyah comprehends. Nonetheless, he acknowledges that he should have struck a better balance to ensure he didn't miss out on important moments in her life.
