Anupam Kher, a well-known actor, stated that “The Kashmir Files” is more than simply a movie for him; it is “an feeling that I expressed on screen.” He was speaking on Wednesday at the 53rd International Film Festival of India’s “Table Talks” session (IFFI).
Kher remarked with passion, “I represent the individuals who were kicked out of their houses, thus I consider it a big obligation to communicate it in the greatest possible way. “My cries and my struggles, which you see in the movie, are all true.”
Anupam Kher claimed that the Vivek Agnihotri movie made the tragedy that befell Kashmiri Pandits in the Valley in the 1990s known to people all over the world.
“It is a movie based on actual events. For the film, Vivek Agnihotri conducted 500 interviews with individuals all across the world. Following escalating violence on the evening of January 19, 1990, around five lakh Kashmiri Pandits were forced to flee the Valley and their houses, according to Anupam Kher.
As a Hindu from Kashmir, I had to deal with the catastrophe, Kher continued. “But the catastrophe was going unnoticed. This catastrophe was being disguised from the world. Documenting the event helped the film to begin the healing process.
Regarding the emergence of OTT platforms, Kher claimed that viewers have developed the habit of viewing international and multilingual films.
“The audience experienced realistic movies. The public would connect with movies that have a realistic quality, according to Anupam Kher. “The popularity of movies like ‘The Kashmir Files’ is proof of that. The movie succeeded even without any comedy or music. In actuality, this is cinema’s success.
