Before the release of The Kashmir files, the film starring Anupam Kher in the lead was mired in controversy for multiple reasons. One of it was the filmmakers and the actor not being invited to the comedy show The Kapil Sharma Show. It all started when director Vivek Agnihotri Tweeted that they were not called on the show as it has ‘big commercial stars’. However later, on an interview, the leading actor had cleared the air stating that The Kashmir Files didn’t appear on the comedy show as it’s a serious film.

The film, which was released in March, created a stir on social media and took the box office by storm. Helmed by Vivek Agnihotri, it also starred his wife Pallavi Joshi, Darshaan Kumar, Mithun Chakraborty in the lead roles.

But looks like Anupam Kher is a firm believer of let bygone be bygones as he recently appeared on The Kapil Sharma to promote his upcoming film Uunchai. Taking to Instagram, he shared a series of photos with the host Kapil Sharma and other co-stars like Neena Gupta, Boman Irani, Sarika and others. But looks like, his appearance hasn’t gone down well with netizens as they quickly recalled Kher of The Kashmir Files controversy.
