The entire nation is talking about the recently released Hindi film ‘The Kashmir Files’ that showcases the horrifying exodus of Hindus from the Kashmir valley in the year 1990.
While the film has become a hot topic of discussion for all the right reasons, actor Anupam Kher reveals that his mother didn’t talk to anyone after watching the film. During a press conference, he revealed, “When my mother saw our film ‘The Kashmir Files’, she didn’t speak to anybody for two days because her memories were revived. She said, ‘Why did you show me this film?’ When Article 370 was revoked in Kashmir, she kept asking if we could go back there.”
Anupam had also shared a video of his mother on social media in which his mother can be seen talking about the film. She told about how her younger brother was threatened and forced to leave his own house in Srinagar. He later died of trauma.
Sharing the video, Anupam wrote in the caption, “Mom saw The Kashmir Files with us yesterday! She was shaken and silent for the longest time. This evening I went to meet her and asked her about the film. As you will see this is her most serious video. She kept quiet for a long time and then this is what she could say. Afterwards I gave her a never ending hug. And as I was leaving she said, “It’s good that you worked in this film. This was your responsibility towards the Kashmiris living around the world. People must know the story. She is right!! That is why I requested Vivek Agnihotri to give me the Executive producer title also for the film. I needed it! Some projects in life are beyond cinema and acting!”
