Director Anurag Kashyap called up John Abraham one fine morning after the release of ‘Water’. He introduced himself as the writer of the film and asked if they could meet.
John narrates, “I too was keen to meet him. He told me he stays on Carte Road. I asked him to come over since I stay in the same area.
The first script that Anurag narrated was titled ‘Lapata’. When he asked me how it was I couldn’t help blurting out “horrible”. He then narrated another script titled “No Smoking”. And I loved it. That’s when he revealed that he had written “Lapata” on the way to my house.”
