The Kashmir conflict has been as old as India’s fight for freedom. It is a sensitive topic for all Indians. Imagine making a film that not just revolves around the conflict but dwells into the lives of those who have been an integral part of that conflict. How can then one expect controversy to stay at bay?

Vivek Agnihotri指示的是,克什米尔的档案从2022年3月11日上映。这部电影使居住在1990年在山谷中的Kashmiri Pandits的出埃及记,这部电影从2022年3月11日上映。

The country’s citizens seem to be divided into two sides. One that supports the making of the film and the other that highly condemns it. Political leaders, especially seem to be majorly affected by it.

In almost all of the BJP-ruled states, the movie has been made tax free. This is said to be a move of the government to encourage people to watch the film that shows the plight of the Kashmiri Pandits. On the other hand, political leaders of Kashmir like Omar Abdulla and Mehbooba Mufti have condemned the film. They have accused the filmmaker of showing false things and playing with the facts. Mehbooba Mufti has also criticized the government for promoting the film. She tweeted, “the manner in which GOI is aggressively promoting Kashmir Files & is weaponising pain of Kashmiri Pandits makes their ill intention obvious. Instead of healing old wounds & creating a conducive atmosphere between the two communities, they are deliberately tearing them apart.”

电影制片人尚不清楚他们将作品称为纪录片或小说作品。但是,克什米尔潘迪特(Kashmiri Pandits)的出埃及记确实发生了这一事实(显然在电影中显示出来),任何人都无法否认这一事实。

Those who have condemned the film have also called for a ban on it. This however is an attack on every individual’s right to freedom of speech and expression. The controversy related to the film reached such great heights that the director started receiving death threats on social media. He has now been provided with a Y category security cover.

这部小型预算电影由Anupam Kher,Pallavi Joshi,Mithun Chakraborty和Darshan Kumaar担任领导职务,并在票房收藏了236.7亿卢比。
