The Kashmir Files row at IFFI: Vivek Agnihotri announces a follow-up film in response to Nadav Lapid's remark

As the International Film Festival of India, which was held in Goa, closed, it started trending on various social media platforms. But, not for a good reason. For the unversed, Israeli filmmaker Nadav Lapid, who was also the jury head at the event, criticised the screening of The Kashmir Files while calling it a “propaganda, vulgar” movie. While Anupam Kher and Pallavi Joshi slammed Lapid’s remark a day after the event, now director Vivek Agnihotri has also broken his silence on the matter. Apparently, he has announced that he will make The Kashmir Files: Unreported to let the people know the 'entire truth'.

The Kashmir Files row at IFFI: Vivek Agnihotri announces a follow-up film in response to Nadav Lapid's remark

While speaking to Aaj Tak, the renowned director said, “I am determined now and I am making an announcement... We have many stories, anecdotes, truths from which we could have made 10 films instead of one. But we decided to make only one film. But now, I have decided that I will bring out the whole truth and its title will be The Kashmir Files: Unreported. Aur yeh main isi saal ke andar andar leke aunga, yeh maine aaj dridh nishchay karliya hai (I will bring it within this year, I am determined now).”

Adding further, he asserted, “I will let everyone know very soon whether Unreported will be in the form of a web series or documentary. I'll divulge the entire truth. Now this subject is beyond art and is more about the reputation of this country. It is my moral responsibility that whatever information, proof I have with me and what all people have said, I bring them out and present it in front of people so they know the entire truth.”

Apart from his statement to the portal, he had also shared a video on his social media handle, in which he was heard saying, “I challenge all these urban Naxals and the legendary filmmaker who came from Israel, that if they can prove any single shot, event or dialogue is not completely true then I will quit filmmaking.”

"Mohinder Amarnath was my dad's favorite cricketer" - says Saqib Saleem

Saqib Saleem, who is giving finishing touches to his performance in what is undoubtedly 2020's most anticipated film - '83,  is absolutely excited to play Mohinder Amarnath in the upcoming Ranveer Singh starrer. But the reason is not just limited to him being part of this iconic project but for what it means to him personally. Talking about wanting to be a cricketer growing up, Saqib says, "Doing '83 was almost like an act of fate. I grew up playing cricket wanting to go pro. I played State level U-19 but that was that. When I decided to become an actor, I knew that life was going to take a whole new path. When I heard about Kabir sir casting for 83, I chased him to ensure I was able to atleast audition." Saqib didn't just have a cricketing connection with '83, but also a solid connection with the character he plays - the man of the match of the '83 World Cup finals - Mohinder aka Jimmy Amarnath. Says Saqib, "Mohinder Amarnath was my father...

Nora Fatehi turns up the heat with Marjaavaan's new song Ek Toh Kum Zindagani! Nora Fatehi's sizzling dance moves in chartbusters including 'Dilbar' ( Satyameva Jayate ) and 'Saki Saki' ( Batla House ) among others has made her a household name in a short span of time. The gorgeous actress, who wants to create a niche for herself as a talented actress, has been focusing more on performance-oriented roles, like last seen in Batla House starring John Abraham. Interestingly, one of the major reasons why Nora agreed to do the song 'Ek Toh Kum Zindagani' in Marjaavaan without charging any money is because she feels obliged to filmmaker Nikkhil Advani and producer Bhushan Kumar who offered her the song 'Dilbar' in Satyameva Jayate, considered to be a turning point in her career. Nora has always been grateful and humbled by the opportunity Nikkhil Advani and Bhushan Kumar have given her with both 'Dilbar' and 'Saki Saki' and s...
