In November last year director Anurag Kashyap and actress Kalki Koechlin announced that they were taking time off their two year marriage.

Ever since then speculations have been rife that the reason behind Anurag and Kalki separating is Anurag’s growing proximity to his ‘Gangs of Wasseypur’ actress Huma Qureshi.

Both Anurag Kashyap and Kalki Koechlin, who were present at ‘Dedh Ishqiya’ premier to support Huma Qureshi, denied the reports.

“Jesus Christ can we please leave Huma alone?! My problems with Anurag have nothing to do with her!," Kalki Koechlin tweeted.

Anurag Kashyap is upset with the rumors and said that they hurt Huma Qureshi more than him or Kalki.

“People run only one sided story and it's very disturbing. Such rumors are not affecting me or Kalki but it is affecting Huma's image. Huma is being targeted," Anurag Kashyap told IANS.

"When we went for the screening, photographers wanted to click us together. I said you guys will click our picture purposely and will run your own story and that's exactly what has happened," he added.

The filmmaker says this is one of the reasons he maintains a distance from the media.

"I have always maintained distance from media because I read so many fake stories about me. After reading so many stories, even we stopped meeting. I am even going to get out of Twitter," he said.

When asked by PTI about the current issues being written about her by the media, actress Huma Qureshi said that she doesn’t want to give any clarifications on this issue.

“I don't respond. People can speculate whatever they want. I am fine with it as far as I know what I am doing,” said Huma Qureshi.
