In another tweet, Agnihotri added, “As of now approx 350 cr worldwide. But that is not important. This film has opened up so many new markets (outside of typical Bollywood market) for an Indian and specially Hindi film, which is unprecedented. It’s time for Bollywood to reflect on its cliché marketing strategies.”
The Kashmir Files tells the story of Kashmiri Pandits who were forced to flee from the Valley in the late 80s and 90s. It stars Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, Darshan Kumaar, Pallavi Joshi and Chinmay Mandlekar. Though the film had a slow start at the box office with a collection of Rs 3.55 crore on its opening day, it grew over the days and currently the film’s collection in India stands at Rs 252.65 crore.
After a successful run in cinema halls, The Kashmir Files will have its digital premiere on ZEE5 on May 13.
