Filmmaker Anurag Kashyap had the most epic response to a tweet about his death shared by KRK Box Office - the verified twitter account of Kamaal R Khan's entertainment website. The 48-year-old filmmaker, who has quite a reputation for his sarcastic responses, retweeted a post in which Kamaal R Khan's portal paid tribute to him, and wrote: "Kal Yamraj ke darshan hue. Aaj Yamraj khud ghar vapas chhod ke gaye. Bole - abhi to aur filmein banani hain tumhe (Saw Yamraj yesterday. He himself dropped me home today. He said, you have to make more films now)." Taking a dig at KRK, a self-appointed critic infamous for his offensive posts about many stars, Anurag Kashyap continued: "Tum film nahi banaoge aur befkuf/bhakt uska boycott nahi karenge to unka Jeevan sarthak nahi hga. Unko sarthakta mile isliye vapas chhod gaye mujhe (If you won't make a film and fools/devotees won't get to boycott it, then their lives will be meaningless. To give their lives a purpose, he left me behind)."
The tweet posted by the KRK Box Office handle read: "#RIP #AnuragKashyap! He was really a great storyteller! We will always miss you sir!"

A later tweet from the same handle claimed that a staffer had confused Anurag Kashyap with someone called Anurag Kapoor.
We are very sorry that one of our staff misunderstood the name of #AnuragKapoor with #AnuragKashyap and published a wrong news about Anurag Kashyap Ji. RIP #AnuragKapoor Ji! https://t.co/8qIzLYaw5w

Anurag Kashyap and KRK go back a long way. In 2015, when KRK alleged that Anurag Kashyap and Karan Johar had told him to stop reviewing films, the Gangs Of Wasseypur director slammed the Deshdrohi actor in a series of tweets, a part of which read: "For the record I have nothing to do with Mr KRK stopping to review films, I think he is shit scared that he will have to eat his words ...So he blames it on me, because it's also easy to believe that I must have done it."
For the record I have nothing to do with Mr KRK stopping to review films, I think he is shit scared that he will have to eat his words ...1

A day later, Kamaal R Khan alleged that Karan Johar, who featured as an actor in Anurag Kashyap's Bombay Velvet, had warned him against giving their film a negative review. Bombay Velvet, which didn't perform well at the box office, released in May in 2015.
