A day after the release of ‘The Kashmir Files’, actor Akshay Kumar had praised the film on Twitter. He was probably the first mainstream Bollywood actor to openly support the film. However, his wife Twinkle Khanna has now taken a jibe at Vivek Agnihotri’s film in her latest column. She joked about how several filmmakers are rushing to register names of different cities as the titles of their movies, following the success of ‘The Kashmir Files’.
She wrote, “In a meeting at a producer’s office, I am informed that there is a deluge of fresh movie titles being registered as a homage to The Kashmir Files. Since larger cities have already been claimed, now the poor chaps are registering names like Andheri Files, Khar-Danda Files, and even South Bombay Files. I am just wondering if my colleagues can still call themselves filmmakers, or with all this filing, they, like the original nationalist, Manoj Kumar, have all turned into clerks.”
Further taking a dig at ‘The Kashmir Files’, Twinkle wrote in her column, “I am going to make a movie called Nail File,” to which her mother Dimple Kapadia asked, “About what? A disastrous manicure.”
“Maybe, but at least it’s better than putting the final nail into the communal coffin,” Twinkle replied to her mother.

While she has launched an open attack against Vivek Agnihotri’s ‘The Kashmir Files’, Akshay had earlier appreciated the film as he said, “All of us, we want to tell stories of our country. Some may be well-known, others not as much. For example, Vivek has made The Kashmir Files that brought a painful truth to the fore and shook us all. That it caused my film (Bachchhan Paandey) to flop is a different issue.”
