Vivek Agnihotri to start shooting for The Kashmir Files

Mumbai: Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri will start shooting the first schedule of his next project, The Kashmir Files, across the UK, USA and Canada soon. The Kashmir Files is based on the genocide of Kashmiri Hindus.

Agnihotri, along with his wife and actress Pallavi Joshi, will be interviewing displaced Kashmiri Pandits, who are now settled far away from their roots.

Talking about the first schedule, Agnihotri said: "I believe that this is the first schedule of The Kashmir Files and the most difficult part of the filming process because it involves real people and real stories, which Pallavi and I would capture on camera. Once I get this right, it is half battle won."

"The research for this project is an extensive one and I want to channelise my energy to digging as deep as possible to get the truth out. This incident should have gone down in the annals in history, but where is it? How many people know about its magnitude," he further said.

In August, Agnihotri shared a poster of the film on the social media. The poster featuring a map of Kashmir in a burnt orange shade had "The right to truth continues" written on it.
