Hard-hitting filmmaker Anurag Kashyap, who got trolled on the social media for criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi for his trip to Pakistan in December last year, said that he has every right to question the Prime Minister.

Earlier on Sunday, Anurag Kashyap, criticized PM Modi in support of Karan Johar after the Cinema Owners and Exhibitors Association of India (COEAI) decided not to release the film starring Pakistani artistes in Maharashtra, Goa and Gujarat in all the single-screen theaters, which will hit hard Karan Johar’s Ae Dil Hai Mushkil, which features Pakistani actor in Fawad Khan.

In his tweets, Anurag Kashyap has said that PM Modi should say ‘sorry’ for his trip to meet the Pakistani PM Nawaz Sharif on December 25 as at the same time, Karan Johar was shooting ‘Ae Dil Hai Mushkil’. The people started to troll the filmmaker on the internet for his comments.

In support of his own tweets, Kashyap said

Just to make it clear, I complain because I expect my government to protect us, I question the PM because I have every right to..

And anyone who questions my love for the country by shouting , must prove there love by representing the country either on the border ..

Or prove your love by representing the country in a honourable way.. Not by shouting here..

I refuse to live in the fear created by blind fanatics that you cannot have a conversation with your PM or question him or expect from him

I would rather ask my questions directly to the PM than trying to impress him by fake nationalism of banning "what puts you in news"
