Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap and Shubhra Shetty discuss their relationship, including their significant age difference, and how that gap affects how they see themselves and how others react. According to the accounts, they describe being age-shamed and growing increasingly self-conscious at different points during their relationship.

Both sources say Kashyap describes trying to protect Shetty by distancing himself for a time. He reportedly says he became so aware of the situation that he attempted to push her away. They also discuss the couple’s connection and compatibility, citing shared interests such as books, movies, and attending festivals.

The outlets also note that the pair have been in an 11-year relationship and now live in Bengaluru after previously residing in Mumbai. While the emphasis differs—one focuses more on the age-gap and marriage discussion, and the other highlights being age-shamed and Kashyap’s attempt to create distance—the overall narrative remains consistent about self-consciousness, their bond, and their attempt to manage public perceptions.
