Mrs Funnybones author wrote, “In a meeting at a producer’s office, I am informed that there is a deluge of fresh movie titles being registered as an homage to The Kashmir Files. Since larger cities have already been claimed, now the poor chaps are registering names like Andheri Files, Khar-Danda Files, and even South Bombay Files. I am just wondering if my colleagues can still call themselves filmmakers, or with all this filing, they, like the original nationalist, Manoj Kumar, have all turned into clerks.”
Twinkle Khanna then also mentioned how she came up with her own idea for her new film and discussed the idea with her mother Dimple Kapadia. The author said, “I am going to make a movie called Nail File,” to which Dimple asked, “About what? A disastrous manicure.”
“Maybe, but at least it’s better than putting the final nail into the communal coffin,” Twinkle replied. While she took a veiled attack on Vivek Agnihotri’s film, her husband Akshay Kumar on the other hand praised the film The Kashmir Files.
In a viral video, Khiladi Kumar was heard saying, “All of us, we want to tell stories of our country. Some may be well-known, others not as much. For example, Vivek has made The Kashmir Files that brought a painful truth to the fore and shook us all. That it caused my film (Bachchhan Paandey) to flop is a different issue.”
