Kapadia, said the song was a "cry for help", reported E! Online.
"I don't think she liked the song. It's dark and it's a cry for help. I think she was surprised it became a hit. The trouble was already there, but that's when it really kicked off," the "Senna" director said.
"That song became, I think, the thing that she hated. People wanted her to sing it and she's singing it with a drink in her hand. It's a cry for help. Every time she says, 'No,' she's saying, 'Yes.'"
"Amy" will release worldwide on July 10.
