‘The Kashmir Files’ screening takes the nation’s capital by storm – watch video!
The makers of the much talked about and highly-anticipated movie ‘The Kashmir Files’ were taken in for a huge surprise during the screening of the exodus drama held in New Delhi recently.
Apart from appreciating filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri’s vision to create a story (that needs to be told) highlighting the plight of Kashmiri pandits, the packed cinema hall gave a standing ovation and huge round of applause to the cinematic masterpiece. The screening echoed the same sentiments from the crowd who couldn’t stop praising the thought-provoking narrative and stupendous performances by the stellar cast.
During the end of last year, Vivek and his wife-actress Pallavi Joshi visited the USA for over a month-long schedule of the special screenings of their highly-anticipated movie ‘The Kashmir Files’ across different cities.
Touted to be one of the most important, relevant and unreported story of Indian history, Vivek’s next ‘The Kashmir Files’ was invited by several prestigious institutes and organizations in the USA. The critically-acclaimed filmmaker along with Pallavi Joshi are elated about the humongous and heartfelt response for ‘The Kashmir Files’ during the movie screenings.
Vivek with his team, led by his wife Pallavi Joshi, took the task and carried extensive research, despite being under the threat of fatwa over last three years. The team studied each story and finally set out to make a feature film. Vivek was challenged by Covid-19, yet he didn’t relent on his mission and completed the research and wrote an engaging story and screenplay that has transformed into an epic film on screen spanning over two hours and fifty minutes with no songs.
Living up to its title, ‘The Kashmir Files’ is a true story, based on video interviews of the first generation victims of The Kashmir Genocide of Kashmiri Pandit Community. It’s a heart-wrenching narrative of the pain, suffering, struggle and trauma of Kashmiri pandits and questions eye-opening facts about democracy, religion, politics and humanity.
Written and directed by Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, the exodus drama features a stellar cast of actors including Mithun Chakraborty, Anupam Kher, Darshan Kumaar, Pallavi Joshi and Chinmay Mandlekar.
Produced by Zee Studios and Tej Narayan Agarwal, Abhishek Agarwal, Pallavi Joshi and Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, ‘The Kashmir Files’, written and directed by Vivek Agnihotri is scheduled to release in theatres on 11th March, 2022.
