‘The Kashmir Files’ becomes highest-grossing Hindi film in pandemic era

"The Kashmir Files", a Hindi film based on the exodus of the Pandit community from the Kashmir valley in 1990, has crossed the Rs 200-crore mark in terms of box office collection. Mithun Chakraborty, Anupam Kher and Pallavi Joshi lead the cast of the emotional drama.

As per reports, the film has broken the record created by Akshay Kumar's "Sooryavanshi" to become the highest-grossing Hindi film during the pandemic.

The film has no songs or comic relief and still has catapulted into an unstoppable phenomenon.

"The Kashmir Files" has also caused deepened divides between political parties in India.

PDP Chief Mehbooba Mufti alleged that the BJP is promoting the film to incite people on religious lines and called for the setting up of a panel to probe the circumstances that led to the exodus of Pandits from the valley.
