Extending support to Lapid's comments Swara also wrote on the social media platform, "Apparently it’s pretty clear to the world .."

On the second day of the event that was held at Goa's Panaji Lapid said, "All of us are disturbed.

I feel totally comfortable in sharing these feelings openly on stage since the spirit of the festival truly accepts critical discussion which is essential for art and life".
