Agnihotri’s reply was polite but acerbic. Thanking the commenter for having faith in him, Agnihotri wrote, “Thanks for having so much faith in me. Par saari films mujhse hi banwaoge kya yaar? Tumhari ‘Team India’ mein koi ‘man enough’ filmmaker nahin hai kya?” (Why should I make all the films? Is no one from your ‘Team India’ man enough?) The reply got viral on the microblogging website. One user wrote, “Hahaha everyone has faith in you. That's the price you have to pay after making superb movies like #TheKashmirFiles, eagerly waiting for #thevaccinewar now.” Others accused the director of having a political agenda. One Twitter user wrote, “So you agree you are part of «Team NDA»? f someone (assuming a fan of your genuine work) requests you to present the real story of Manipur, you will target him & put a tag/label? Why not present the reality of Manipur & if u don't wanna do it, then don't target/label people!!!”
