I had put up a video with a dialogue from the film… So much anger, so many comments? Do you know what each comment says? 'You look like a terrorist,' 'I feel like thrashing you through the screen,' 'You have made us angry'... Should I tell you something? I really liked this patriotism inside us—I salute it.
