The tweet drew flak from Twitter users who called him an “attention seeker”.
A user picked up on his sleeping part and suggested that he should not sleep then. “Wo bhi band kar do.. sleep is for the weak, right? (Stop that too. Sleep is for the weak, right?)”. To this Pratap responded that he wants to.
Pratap wrote, “I want to give it up. But there’s no way to do it physically. I feel sleep is the most wasteful activity we engage in."
