“The Kashmir Files”, a Hindi film based on the exodus of the Pandit community from the Kashmir valley in the early months of the insurgency, has crossed the Rs 200-crore mark in terms of box office collection, as predicted by film analysts and theatre owners.
This is unprecedented for a film that didn’t have large scale promotions or publicity or even big stars, surpassing all expectations.
The film has no songs or comic relief and still has catapulted into an unstoppable phenomenon.
The drama is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the Valley in 1990 and has minted over Rs 200 crore (till Wednesday) since its release on March 11.
Actors Mithun Chakraborty, Anupam Kher and Pallavi Joshi lead the cast of the emotional drama.
