As reported by Indian Express, Mamta also addressed those angry over her 'deeksha'. She told the media, "Several people are angry, my fans are also angry, they feel that I will return to Bollywood.

"Although Mamata Banerjee was born in a Hindu family, hurting the sentiments of Hindus has become her fashion. She gets angry if one says 'Vande Mataram' or 'Bharat Mata Ki Jai'," Krishnam told ANI.
