The tweet reads: "I don't think #AnuragKashyapISIS_Terrorist. He's a moron with God complex who gets paid for his participation in protests (11 lakhs upfront & 50,000 per month from UP Govt to promote Samajwadi party). Probably angry over Yogi's move to cut his monthly payment."Another user claimed Kashyap is hungry for publicity and money. The tweet reads: "Dis guy @anuragkashyap72 has a history of selling himself. He was a part of a gang of filmmakers who were anti KJO. They hated him to d core & Anurag was their leader. Den 1 fine day Anurag joins KJO camp & leaves his old gang. He can do anything for (money emoji). #AnuragKashyapISIS_Terrorist".Taking a dig at the government's IT Cell for the trending hashtag, #AnuragKashyapISIS_Terrorist", the filmmaker tweeted in Hindi which translates to: "I didn't know that the IT Cell is so much scared of the truth.
