On Wednesday, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap shared an elaborate Instagram post, praising Kiran Rao for creating a "sincere, funny, beautiful film" such as Laapataa Ladies. He wrote, “What a sincere, funny, beautiful film @raodyness has made. She says so much with so much subtlety but more than that, watching such a soulful film, an incredible love story, beautiful storytelling with truth bombs dropping with such humour every ten minutes. I cried like a baby. I took my driver Narayan ji with me who is from Bihar and he was like “gaanv ki yaad aa gayi”. The truth in the eyes of the actors who I have never seen before, all fresh faces with a lifetime performance from @ravikishann, the production design, the cinematography and then the writing by @snehadesaiofficial and team. Reminded me of the honesty, sensitivity and empathy of people in India I grew up with now seem gone. And it is as funny and emotional as it is sincere. I can only just go on gushing about it."

Laapataa Ladies also stars Chhaya Kadam, Durgesh Kumar, Satendra Soni, and Hemant Soni.
