A hale and hearty Anurag didn’t take long in giving an epic reply.
“I saw Yamraj yesterday. He dropped me home today. He said, I have to make more films. If I won’t make films, fools/haters won’t get a chance to boycott it. Then, their life will be meaningless,” tweeted Anurag.
कल यमराज के दर्शन हुए .. आज यमराज खुद घर वापस छोड़ के गए । बोले – अभी तो और फ़िल्में बनानी हैं तुम्हें । तुम फ़िल्म नहीं बनाओगे और बेवक़ूफ़/भक्त उसका boycott नहीं करेंगे , तो उनका जीवन सार्थक नहीं होगा। उनको सार्थकता मिले इसलिए वापस छोड़ गये मुझे। https://t.co/fHuZN6YQ5n

Later, KRK’s Twitter handle issued an apology and stated that a staff member confused Anurag Kashyap with Anurag Kapoor and goofed up in the post.
We are very sorry that one of our staff misunderstood the name of #AnuragKapoor with #AnuragKashyap and published a wrong news about Anurag Kashyap Ji. RIP #AnuragKapoor Ji! 👏 https://t.co/8qIzLYaw5w
