Another user wrote, "जब अब्दुल का मानसिक संतुलन बिगड़ता है तो फिल्मों में वो तिरंगा ले कर जयहिंद के नारे लगता है, वास्तव में हथियार ले कर काफिर हिन्दू को मारता है। गौरखक्ष पीठ के बाद मिर्जापुर के अब्दुल को उसके हिंदू पड़ोसी ने घर के सामने कचरा फेंकने से रोका तो देखिए अब्दुल ओर उसकी बीबी ने क्या किया."

[English Translation: When Abdul's mental balance deteriorates, in films he shouts Jaihind with the tricolour, however, in reality, he kills a Kafir Hindu with a weapon. After Gaurakhaksha Peeth, Abdul of Mirzapur was stopped by his Hindu neighbour from throwing garbage in front of the house, then see what Abdul and his wife did.]
