The film ‘The Kashmir Files’ is getting a good response from the audience in theatres. On the other hand, comedian Kapil Sharma’s show has been boycotted once again regarding this film.

Let us tell you that in the past, Vivek Agnihotri while talking to the media had said that Kapil Sharma had categorically refused to call the star cast of ‘The Kashmir Files’ in his show. He said, ‘I have the official statement that they have given to the media that we cannot call Vivek Agnihotri, Anupam Kher, and Pallavi Joshi because Mithun Chakraborty is doing a show on another channel. So he couldn’t come. That’s why we are the only ones who can do something for the film and they refused us directly.
Vivek Agnihotri further said, ‘When this whole controversy started, only a day or a half ago He told Pallavi, if you want, we can do it on 15-16 April. The film is releasing now so what’s the use later? And to avoid all this, Kapil Sharma sent a statement and said yesterday it is a one-sided story. Talking further, Vivek Agnihotri described Kapil Sharma as clever and a TRP collector.
The director of ‘The Kashmir Files’ said, ‘Forget about the star cast too. These people keep talking so much about Kashmir and jawans, Kapil, etc. They gain a lot of TRP on that topic. Now Kashmir is coming, which everyone wants. So you can’t do anything.
