Vivek Agnihotri has now responded to Arvind Kejriwal, who is facing flak on social media for posting The Kashmir Files on YouTube. Vivek Agnihotri, who directed The Kashmir Files, jokingly said that there are many people who want God to come down on the ground. According to the news of NDTV, Vivek Agnihotri without naming Arvind Kejriwal said that some people are stupid, some people are crazy and some people are stupid. We should ignore these three types of people. He should not answer any of his questions. Vivek Agnihotri, who arrived at the Chitra Bharati Film Festival organized at Makhanlal Chaturvedi National University of Journalism and Communication, Bhopal, said this. In fact, he was asked to respond to Arvind Kejriwal’s statement in which he had said that why make the film tax free, put the film on YouTube, everyone will see.
Significantly, there was a demand to make The Kashmir Files, a film on the displacement of Kashmiri Pandits, tax-free in Delhi. On this issue, in the Delhi Assembly, CM Arvind Kejriwal said that if the aim of the film is that more and more people see it, then it should be put on YouTube. Taking a jibe at the BJP-ruled states that have made the film tax-free, Arvind Kejriwal had said that Vivek Agnihotri put them up for putting up posters.
During this, Arvind Kejriwal also took a jibe at PM Modi and said that despite running the government for eight years, a director put you in pasting posters and himself earned crores of rupees. Arvind Kejriwal had said that BJP is appealing to more and more people to watch the film. If he wants to show the film to as many people as possible, then why doesn’t Vivek ask Agnihotri to put the film on YouTube?
