#Anurag Kashyap releases prologue to his film 'Ugly'

Mumbai, Dec 24 (IBNS): Kali-Katha, that goes online on Wednesday is a five-minute prologue to Anurag Kashyap's film Ugly.

For the first time in the history of Indian cinema, a prologue of any film would be releasing.

Kali-Katha, specially crafted from the deleted scenes of the film Ugly, gives the audiences an emotional backdrop to the story and characters of Ugly, which is about the harrowing search for Kali-a young girl who is kidnapped under mysterious circumstances.

The short film shows the past relationship between Kali's parents -Rahul who is a struggling actor and Shalini who is a housewife, though not by choice, and the disturbing conditions under which she was born.

Anurag Kashyap has always taken an unconventional and daring path when it comes to his films or their promotions. He feels that the viewers get a better understanding of the characters if they see Kali-Katha before they go and watch Ugly.

Says Anurag, “It's a very dark prologue to the film that talks about the circumstances around the conception of Kali. It explores the uncomfortable truth below the surface of relationships, which we often ignore and refuse to accept."

Ugly releases across Indian cinemas on Friday.
