Recently, during the press conference of Netflix's darlings, director-music composer Vishal Bharadwaj said that all a creative person wants is appreciation for his creativity. And Bollywood actor Vineet Kumar Singh seems to subscribe to that school of thought, too.

"Mujhe nahin maalum (I don't know) ... No, it is not like that... It is just that they are stingy about tweets. I see that if a particular body of work belongs to a certain section, everyone stands up to support it," Vineet Kumar Singh said. 

When the host pressed him for further discussion on the topic, suggesting this lack of inclusion could be a case of nepotism, Vineet Kumar Singh was quick to add that the industry as a whole is 'stingy' about tweeting in supporting of everyone's works.

"I won't call it a gang. Mukkabaaz released on January 12, 2018. As an actor, if i have lacked somewhere then tell me. if I have fallen short somewhere, I am willing to work more on that. But in the last four-and-a-half-years, I don't have a single solo theatrical release. Aadhar was made but it never released and other than that, I couldn't materialise anything else. Sometimes i wonder, why did Mukkabaaz happen in my life? Why did Wasseypur happen in my life?..."
