Indian Filmmakers Named in Epstein Files Deny Connections Amid Document Release

The recently released Epstein Files, comprising over three million pages of documents related to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, mention several Indian figures including filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, Mira Nair, and Nandita Das. Kashyap has denied any connection, stating he has never been to Beijing and dismissing the references as unverified emails and clickbait. The files include various mentions of public figures in contexts such as event invitations, without evidence of wrongdoing or direct association with Epstein's criminal activities. Authorities emphasize that appearing in the documents does not imply involvement in illegal acts.
