Responding to Prakash’s comments on the film, Anupam told Navbharat Times that people talk according to their status. According to him, some people have to lie all their lives, while others speak the truth. The veteran actor added that he is one of those who have spoken the truth, throughout his life. He also went on to say that if people want to live their life with the help of lies, it’s their wish.
Earlier, Prakash claimed that The Kashmir Files is a ‘propaganda film’. During an event in Kerala, he said, “The Kashmir Files is one of the nonsense films, but we know who produced it. Shameless. International jury spit on them. They are still shameless. The other fellow, the director, is still saying, ‘Why am I not getting an Oscar?’ He will not even get a Bhaskar.”
Elaborating further, he added, “I tell you because there is a sensitive media out there. Here you can do a propaganda film. I know, according to my sources, they have invested around ₹2000 crore only to make films like this. But you can’t fool people all the time.”
Directed by Vivek Agnihotri, the film starred Anupam in the lead role alongside Pallavi Joshi, Mithun Chakraborty and Darshan Kumaar among others.
