Piyush Mishra, known for his candid nature, has shared insights into his professional and personal relationships. He openly expressed a strong preference for collaborating with filmmaker Imtiaz Ali over Anurag Kashyap. Mishra described Ali as a "great director" with "amazing scripts," finding his work immensely satisfying. In contrast, he characterized Kashyap as someone who "talks too much" and "does wrong to himself unnecessarily," suggesting a lack of positive outcomes from his actions.
Despite a functional working relationship on projects like 'Gangs of Wasseypur,' Mishra highlighted a communication barrier with Kashyap. He stated, "We don't talk, only shoot for films," and noted that while they collaborate effectively, their personal interactions are minimal and strained, even referencing past mutual abuses.
The actor also touched upon his difficult relationship with Naseeruddin Shah, admitting, "I don't have good relations with Naseer." He elaborated that neither he nor Shah likes each other, leading to a mutual understanding of not needing to communicate. Mishra is currently engaged in a national tour with his band 'Ballimaaraan' for their 'Aarambh 2.0 India tour.' His upcoming film projects include 'The Saga of Rashtriya Rifles' and 'Lollypop Since 1947.'
