National Award-winning filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri’s film 'The Kashmir Files' released in theatres on March 11. 'The Kashmir Files' is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits that took place in 1990.

Director Vivek Agnihotri said that sketching the film for the celluloid was not an easy task, "Bringing the story of the Kashmir genocide to the big screen is no easy feat and has to be handled with a great deal of sensitivity. This film promises to be an eye-opener and with a talented ensemble cast, audiences can revisit this incident in Indian history through this raw and real narrative."

"A movie is as good as its script and with 'The Kashmir Files', audiences can actually feel and endure the emotions that the characters go through. As actors everyone on the team completely got under the skin of their characters and committed to telling this shocking and saddening story,” said Actress Pallavi Joshi about the film.

The writers have placed more spotlight on Pushkar Nath Pandit (Anupam Kher) and his family than on other Pandit families. One of the plus points for the screenplay is the murder sequence of Pushkar Nath's son. The mass murder scene in the climax also shakes the audience. The scene of Pushkar Nath's grandson, Krishna Pandit (Darshan Kumar), meeting the villain (Chinmay Mandlekar) is also very well written. The scenes on the college campus have also come to life, but the scenes of the refugee camp fade a little.
