Replying to a query by a reporter on how he viewed Anvar's criticisms, Vellappally replied, "Don't you have any other work? Everyone is entitled to their own political opinions. Is there an attempt to cause conflict between us or gain political mileage? Don’t ask such irrelevant questions."

Regarding Anvar's potential formation of a new political party, Vellappally remarked that it was Anvar's personal decision. "I don’t need to share my opinion with the media right now," Vellapally said.
