Has Anurag Kashyap Quit His Company Phantom Or Split With Girlfriend Shubhra Shetty?
Social media often becomes a medium for stars to not only connect with fans, but also pen their thoughts, no matter how cryptic they might be. Case in point -- Anurag Kashyap, who posted a thought on Facebook a few hours ago.

It read, “The Worst feeling in the world is when you end up fighting the very people you fought the world for...”



Now, this statement makes us wonder as to what the filmmaker wants to say. Is this coming post Phantom’s partners having gone their separate ways? Or is this about Anurag Kashyap’s girlfriend Shubhra Shetty? Well, your guess is as good as ours.

For those who have come in late, a blind item published about an alleged sex scandal in a leading production house on the front page of Mumbai Mirror got tongues wagging. The name of the Ladies Man that was being floated in the industry was Vikas Bahl. Anurag was clearly not happy with what he had been hearing since a long time after which he met Vikas and the meeting turned into a fight.

What had he been hearing? Our source revealed, "All about Vikas's ‘extra-curricular activities’ which eventually made him take a stand when Vikas got friendly with a close friend of his."

After the huge fight, it turns out that Madhu Mantena is ready to exit Phantom. Vikas Bahl has already been given the boot, thanks to the sex scandal

Interestingly, the rift between Vikas and Anurag started years ago, with creative differences over Bombay Velvet, which was directed by Anurag and produced by Vikas. After that, the two have never seen eye to eye and had several heated exchanges over many issues, including Anurag's ambitions of doing films outside Phantom like Mukkebaaz for one and dishing out a box-office dud like Raman Raghav 2.0 which created a dent of Rs 6 crore in the balance sheets of Phantom.

Talking about Anurag's girlfriend, Anurag and Shubhra started dating sometime in 2016. SpotboyE.com was the first to blow the lid on the romance. After his divorce from Kalki Koechlin and a failed relationship with Sabira Khan, Kashyap found love in Shubhra. A source had even told us that the two were living in together. However, the director had vehemently denied the story then. But the recent pictures of the two holidaying in New York were proof enough of their relationship status.
