Meanwhile, Anurag Kashyap, denying the allegations against him, responded through a series of tweets. He wrote in Hindi, “Wow, it took so long in the attempt to silence me. It's ok. In the attempt to silence me, you dragged several other women despite being a woman yourself. Have some limit Madam. Will just want to say that whatever the accusations are, they are all unsubstantiated.” Read more here.
