It is to be noted that Anurag Kashyap is currently busy with his upcoming film ‘Saand Ki Aankh’. The film starring Bhumi Pednekar and Taapsee Pannu also has Prakash Jha and Vineet Kumar Singh playing significant roles. Based on the lives of octogenarian sharpshooters Chandro Tomar and Prakashi Tomar of Johri, Uttar Pradesh, the project was earlier titled ‘Womaniya’.

However, due to legal tussle, Anurag Kashyap changed the name of the film to ‘Saand Ki Aankh’. It is worth to mention here that Anurag Kashyap owns the Intellectual Property Rights of the term ‘Womaniya’ from his 2012 film ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’ but filmmaker Pritish Nandy registered the title beforehand.

Recently, Anurag Kashyap lashed out at Pritish Nandy in a series of tweets as he demanded money for parting with ‘Womaniya’ title.

So we have decided to not pay the extortion sum of 1 crore to @PritishNandy. He can sit on the title and warm it and hope for it to hatch into something worthwhile for his company for once
