Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap comments on Babita Singh Reporting after watching the film, saying it is “better than 50% of the films” he saw at Cannes. He also highlights the film’s quality in his review.
Both outlets reporting on his remarks include his reaction to how the film is released. Kashyap says it is “sad” that Babita Singh Reporting does not appear to have “travelled” or screened widely, and instead is released straight on OTT. The coverage presents his assessment as a mix of praise for the film itself and criticism of its distribution path.
While the sources focus on the same core statements—his comparative Cannes remark and his disappointment about the OTT release—they do not add further details about the film’s plot, box office performance, or specific Cannes screenings. The reporting therefore centers on Kashyap’s personal evaluation rather than independent verification of festival context.
