Anupam Kher’s wife, actor-MP Kirron Kher recently took to social media to congratulate the team for its ‘resounding success’. Tagging her husband and also the director of The Kashmir Files, she wrote, “Congratulations to @vivekagnihotri, @AnupamPKher and the team of The Kashmir Files for its resounding success. The stark and tragic Truth told brilliantly moves everyone. It is the chronicling of a Humanitarian Crisis that was ignored for many years. Well done. Jai Ho.
The movie opened to mixed reviews among critics and the public. In her review, The Indian Express critic Shubhra Gupta wrote, “The film may not be interested in nuance but what stays with us are the flashes of genuine pain we see in the person of Pushkar Nath, played Anupam Kher in a credible, moving turn.”
