Mumbai, February 23: National Award-winning director Vivek Agnihotri’s recent film ‘The Kashmir Files’ has taken the internet by storm, after its gut-wrenching trailer dropped on Monday. Agnihotri’s last film, ‘The Tashkent Files’ too, based on the case of Lal Bahadur Shastri’s death, was targetted by media and film critics.
Vivek Agnihotri has now alleged film critic Anupama Chopra of trying to ‘sabotage’ his recent movie, The Kashmir Files. Agnihotri tweeted his allegation against Film Companion head Anupama Chopra that she is playing ‘dirty tricks’ in the background to target his movie.
Vivek Agnihotri asked Anupama, calling her Shoorpankha, “If you have any guts, sabotage ‘The Kashmir Files’ openly. Please stop playing dirty tricks from the background. Your only qualification is that you are married to a Producer who despite being a KP (Kashmiri Pandit), stabbed KPs in their back.”
When asked by a user on Twitter as to what the critic has done, Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri announced that he is soon going to expose the tricks of the trade used by Anupama and her team. Agnihotri also flaked the film critic and writer Rahul Desai, who is employed at Chopra’s Film Companion.
Propaganda against the flim has already started, while the trailer has become an instant hit amongst masses. The film stars Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, Pallavi Joshi, Darshan Kumar, Chinmay Mandlekar in lead roles & is set to release in cinemas on March 11, 2021.
