Abhishek Bachchan praises Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files- “If a film does good business, it has to be a good film”

Abhishek praised the film during one of his promotional interviews for his upcoming film Dasvi. Speaking to Times Now Navbharat, Abhishek responded to a question on politics and films and said, "You were talking about The Kashmir Files. The genesis of it is what- we have been discussing that for two-three days. Whatever you say, you want to politicise it, you want to communalise it, that is your freedom of speech and opinion. But if the film wasn't good, it wouldn't have worked. There is no other reason why it's working. You can take out a lot of other meanings and ripple effects. The foundation is that it has to be a good film."

“Again, it's not my place to say because I haven't seen the film. But I've not met anybody who said it's a bad film. That is the only truth of cinema. If a film does good business, it has to be a good film," he added.

Vivek Agnihotri shared the clip and wrote, "Thank you @juniorbachchan for your graciousness." Responding to Vivek's tweet, Abhishek wrote, "Look forward to seeing the film at the earliest. Best wishes.”


The Kashmir Files narrates the story of the exodus of the Kashmiri Pandits during the Kashmir Insurgency stars Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, Darshan Kumaar, Pallavi Joshi, among others.  The film that was released on March 11 has grossed over Rs. 250 crore and is one of the biggest hits of recent times.

Meanwhile, Abhishek Bachchan will next be seen in the film Dasvi which revolves around Ganga Ram Chaudhary, an "anpadh, corrupt and dil se desi" politician who finds a new challenge in prison: education. The film which also stars Yami Gautam and Nimrat Kaur will be released on Netflix on April 7.
