The controversy between Vivek Agnihotri and Kapil is not stopping. Vivek Agnihotri tweeted about the promotion of ‘The Kashmir Files’ in ‘The Kapil Sharma Show’. After which people on social media talked about boycotting Kapil’s show. Shortly after Vivek Agnihotri’s tweet, Kapil said on Twitter that Vivek Agnihotri’s allegations were a one-sided story. On which now Vivek Agnihotri, in an exclusive conversation with Dainik Jagran, described Kapil as clever and a TRP collector.

Vivek Agnihotri clarified in an exclusive conversation with us that Kapil Sharma had categorically refused to invite the star cast of ‘The Kashmir Files’ on 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. When this entire controversy started, only a day or a half ago, Pallavi has been told, if you want, we can do it on 15-16 April. The film is releasing now, 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 a clever TRP collector. The director of ‘The Kashmir Files’ said, ‘Forget about the star cast too. People like Kapil and so on keep talking about Kashmir and jawans. They collect a lot of TRP on that. Now Kashmir is coming, which everyone wants. So you can’t do anything. People come after winning a test match, they call these players, the film which is about Kashmir and the nationalism that Kapil talks about, reaches Modi for photographs, then he is not ashamed to speak. Happened. He is very smart. Wherever you have seen the promotion of our film in any reality show. Called only in the Marathi channel where Anupam Kher and Pallavi Joshi had gone. But there is no promotion anywhere in Hindi. There is no name. They call such useless people.
