Anurag Kashyap has yet again replied with sarcasm and humour to a troll. The verified account of KRK Box Office, Kamaal R Khan’s platform for Bollywood news and trade analyses tweeted  “#RIP #AnuragKashyap! He was really a great storyteller! We will always miss you sir!”. Anurag took this death hoax this in a fun manner and gave a savage reply. 

Anurag funnily said that Yamraj, the Hindu God of death, escorted him back to Earth as his existence and films gave meaning to a lot of people’s lives. “Kal Yamraj ke darshan hue… Aaj Yamraj khud ghar wapas chhod ke gaye. Bole - abhi toh aur filmein banani hai tumhe. Tum film nahi banaoge aur bewakoof/bhakt uska boycott nahi karenge, toh unka jeevan sarthak nahi hoga. Unko sarthakta mile isliye wapas chhod gaye mujhe (Met Yamraj yesterday. Today, he himself escorted me back home. He said, ‘You still have to make more films. If you don’t make films and if these films are not boycotted by idiots and bhakts, their lives will be meaningless.’ He left me back on Earth so that I can help them find meaning in their lives),” the actor-director tweeted.

This is not the first time Anurag has been trolled. He has been dealing with such hate comments for a long time now. In 2018, he had told a news agency that trolls simply poured out their frustration online. “We are dealing with a country which is so over-populated, where there is so much resentment, so much repression, so many mouths to feed, so many people looking for work, so many disillusioned people. Sometimes I think when they are frustrated they want to take it out. And they feel better after abusing,” he said.

On the work front, Anurag was last seen as a corrupt police officer in ZEE5's Ghoomketu that starred Nawazuddin Siddiqui in the lead role.
