The Kashmir Files
"The Kashmir Files," a Hindi-language historical drama released in 2022 and directed by Vivek Agnihotri, narrates the true account of the forced displacement of Kashmiri Pandits from the Kashmir Valley in 1990. Featuring lead performances by Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, and Pallavi Joshi, the film serves as a poignant call for attention, highlighting the hardships faced by the Kashmiri Pandits, a religious minority, who were driven from their homes by Islamic militants during the 1990s.
The movie strongly argues that the event was not merely an exodus but a brutal genocide, deliberately overlooked for political reasons. Stranded as refugees in their own country, the Kashmiri Pandits continue to yearn for justice and recognition. The film's intense and heart-wrenching narrative, coupled with Anupam Kher's emotionally charged performance, evokes a powerful response. "The Kashmir Files" presents an unfiltered and unsettling perspective, effectively stirring nationalist sentiments and contributing to communal divisions in India.
