Bollywood movie The Kashmir Files has been all over the news for the last few days not just for its exceptional box office success but also for the several controversies that have been surrounding the film. Celebrities and politicians like Kapil Sharma and Arvind Kejriwal have been dragged into the argument in the last one week and looks like the debate will continue for a while. In a recent interaction with the media, actor Anupam Kher opened up on the film entering the 200-crore club where the Khans and Kapoors have had a monopoly for a while.

For the unversed, the film is based on the story of the Kashmiri Pandit exodus which is a part of Indian history that hasn’t been given enough spotlight in the past. The movie has been directed by Vivek Agnihotri and is running successfully in the theatres despite having strong competition from a few other Bollywood and south Indian films.

In a recent interaction with Times Now, actor Anupam Kher, who plays a lead role in The Kashmir Files shed some light on how it feels to be a part of the 200-crore club. He clarified that even though he is grateful about the experience, there is a sense of sadness because of the film’s story.
