Meanwhile, Anurag Kashyap has been a subject of controversy over the past few days after the director took to his Twitter page to post a comment his daughter, Aaliyah Kashyap had received on her Instagram page.
In his tweet, he congratulated Prime Minister Narendra Modi upon being re-elected for a second term and questioned him for the lack of women’s safety on social media after the rape threat was issued to his daughter.
Anurag Kashyap’s complaint on the social networking forum was soon taken up by the Mumbai Police, who have now reportedly filed a FIR on the said individual under sections 504, 509 of Indian Penal Code and 67 of Information Technology Act.
The director once again took to his Twitter page for the swift action to thank the Mumbai Police including the Chief Minister of Maharashtra, Devendra Fadnavis and Prime Minister Narendra Modi for enforcing immediate action based on his complaint.
