In an interview with NDTV, Anupam Kher reacted strongly to the Centre and the current state of the pandemic in the country. "Somewhere they have slipped ... it is time for them to understand that there is much more to life than just image-building maybe." Speaking about the distressing videos of people struggling for oxygen cylinders, hospital beds, corpses being thrown into Ganga; Anupam said one should get "Angry".

The 66-year-old actor said one should get angry seeing such things and hold the government responsible. "I think the criticism is valid in lots of cases and I think it is important for the government to rise to the occasion and do things that they are chosen by people of this country for. I think only an inhuman person will not get affected by... bodies floating. But for another political party to use it for their gain is also not right."
