Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap feels that the International Film Festival of India (IFFI) needs a complete overhaul with less involvement of the bureaucrats.
	"IFFI needs little less bureaucracy... Artwork is so sub-standard that you feel you have come for a government conference and not a film festival. First they should stop their bureaucracy and 'babugiri'. They need a complete overhaul," Kashyap told reporters on the sidelines of NFDC's Film Bazaar.
