“Kashmir has lost 20,000 lives to these targeted killings. It’s time we speak up,” the text reads, as Pakistani poet Faiz Ahmed Faiz’s Hum Dekhenge plays on in the background.
Released on March 11, The Kashmir Files, directed by Vivek Agnihotri, was endorsed by a number of Union Ministers and granted tax-free status in most all BJP-ruled states. The movie depicts the exodus of Pandits from Kashmir due to the rise in militancy and violence against the community.
