Director Anurag Basu who is all content with his film Barfi's response, reveals that he played a role in it too.

Unnoticed in the film, Anurag appears in a sequence, where Ranbir and Priyanka are traveling in an open truck, with a man sitting opposite Priyanka, with a covered face, leering at her legs. That man is none other than Anurag himself.

Anurag says that it just happened, as they were looking out for a man to do that role. As no one was willing to play that dirty man's part, he quickly wrapped a blanket, to cover his face and shot the scene.

Anurag reveals another secret, saying that he has appeared in almost all his films, but denies to give exact details. Previously Anurag Basu has played a pivotal role in I Am, directed by Onir, which consists of four short films exploring such themes as child abuse and same-sex relationships.
