Anuku said, “I was trying to get into character for a role as someone not in their right mind. I did this in the neighborhood to portray it as the director wanted. I was meditating and focusing on my script, unaware I was being recorded.”

He emphasized that the rumors about his insanity and drug use are false. “People have said a lot of things, but rumors are just rumors. They claimed I was sick and on drugs, but I was not. Maybe I looked depressed, which can happen, but I was never on drugs. I’m not a madman. I’m very sane and healthy. I exercise a lot and practice martial arts and sports,” Anuku stated.
