Anupam Kher played the character of Kashmiri Pandit in the film The Kashmir Files. There was a lot of opposition for showing wrong facts in this film. At the same time, some people are also telling the reason for the recent killing of Pandits and outsiders in Kashmir. Now Anupam has tweeted that he is going to Varanasi to perform Tripindi Shradh Puja for the Pandits who have been shot by terrorists. To this a journalist said that ‘you need to go to Kashmir before Varanasi’.
Anupam Kher wrote on Twitter that “I am going to Varanasi. During the shooting of The Kashmir Files, I had decided that I would make the souls rest in peace lessons for all those Kashmiri Hindus who were brutally murdered by terrorists during #HinduGenocide. This puja is called Tripindi Shradh Puja. Thanks to the organisers!” On this, journalist Rajesh Sahu wrote that you need to go to Kashmir before Varanasi and talk about the security of Kashmiri Pandits.
Replying to Anupam Kher’s tweet, Rajesh Sahu wrote that ‘You need to go to Kashmir before coming to Varanasi. The conditions there are bad. Go there and talk to the Governor about the security of the Pandits. Then get the souls of the pundits recited for peace to Mahadev. On this Anupam Kher wrote that ‘Do something you too! You are a journalist in Dainik Bhaskar! Write an article on how terrorists brutally killed Kashmiri Hindus, raped their mothers, sisters in Kashmir for the last 35 years! Do evil of terrorism too. Those whom I am going to worship, they were victims of their bullets.
After this the journalist wrote that “we keep writing that atrocities happened in Kashmir. But why should the then government there not be held guilty during the violence against Kashmiri Pandits? This part was cleverly hidden in your film too. Your film has only spread negativity. In Kashmir as well as in the country.”
Do something yourself! You are a journalist in Dainik Bhaskar! Write an article on how terrorists brutally killed Kashmiri Hindus, raped their mothers, sisters in Kashmir for the last 35 years! Do evil of terrorism also. Whom I am going to worship. They were victims of their bullets.? https://t.co/xBUUohjwr3

Let us tell you that there was a lot of controversy in the country regarding the film ‘The Kashmir Files’ made on the atrocities on Hindus in Kashmir. On one hand, while taking PM Modi, Union ministers and BJP-ruled state governments supported the film, on the other hand there was a demand to ban this film. Along with it it was also said that this film can spoil the atmosphere of the country and Kashmir. However, the film was not banned and the film earned a record break.
In the past, there have been many incidents of target killing in Kashmir. In which Kashmiri Pandits and laborers of other states were targeted. Many Kashmiri Pandits started migrating. People on social media were trolling TKF film director Vivek Agnihotri, Anupam Kher for this. Former Jammu and Kashmir Chief Minister Farooq Abdullah had also said that The Kashmir Files should be banned if peace is wanted in Kashmir.
