Twitter remains chirping because of people like Kangana Ranaut and Vivek Agnihotri. Major times their out-of-nowhere explosive tweets are ignored, and sometimes other celebs decide to react. Recently, when Vivek Agnihotri engaged in a dirty tweet exchange with journalist Mohammed Zubair, actress Swara Bhasker decided to speak up.

From puncture repairer to ¡®jihadi¡¯, Vivek showed all signs of Islamophobia while indulging with Zubair.
Swara on which reacted by tweeting, ¡°Vivek Agnihotri name-calling, swearing at, accusing Muslim citizens on public platforms simply because they are Muslim is a glaring example of how vile, poisoned, bigoted and majoritarian our public discourse has become in ¡®New India¡¯. Sickening.¡±

The fiasco began when the journalist revealed that the Dadasaheb Phalke International Film Awards that Vivek¡¯s film won was not real.
The miffed Vivek reacted by saying, ¡°Fact-checking is the biggest extortion mafia today. Controlled by the crazy, lunatic terror organisation.¡± Vivek further added, ¡°Hey Fake Checker, 1. I am sorry but you will have to live with the fact that #TheKashmirFiles has indeed exposed your jihadi mafia. Pl, learn to deal with it. I don¡¯t blame madarasa scholar like you for you can¡¯t even read what¡¯s written on the trophy. All the best with fake news.¡±
When Zubair shared screenshots of the award confusion, Vivek hit back again and tweeted, ¡°I don¡¯t hate fact-checkers, I hate when puncture repairers pretend to be fact-checkers. Because you are nothing but just a jehadi pimp of India¡¯s enemies & I know very well who is behind you. Every jihadi will have his day and your time is just around the corner.¡±

Zubair wrote back, ¡°Words like ¡®Jihadi¡¯ or ¡®Puncture wala¡¯ against Muslims were earlier used by faceless Right Wing trolls, It's now openly being used by Verified trolls like.¡± Vivek then replied, ¡°Instead of metaphors, I should call you exactly what you are: Genocide denier, terror supporter, perpetrator of women harassment (Nupur Sharma) instigator of #SarTanSeJuda (Kanhaiya Lal) & anti-truth pimp of Hindu¡¯s enemies. Prepare yourself for qayamat when it comes. The end.¡±
Coming back to Swara and Vivek, then the duo¡¯s feud began during the release of Padmaavat (2018) when Swara criticised Sanjay Leela Bhansali for certain scenes in the film. Replying to her, Vivek had then called her a 'fake feminist'. Vivek is currently working on The Vaccine War and a docu-series ¡®Kashmir Unreported¡¯.
