Israeli filmmaker and International Film Festival of India (IFFI) Jury Head Nadav Lapid termed Vivek Agnihotri’s popular film ‘The Kashmir Files’ as ‘vulgar’ and ‘propaganda’. This caused a stir. While some, including the entire cast of the film, objected to his statement, there were others who came to Lapid’s side and supported him. Now, Nadav clarified his statement saying, ‘A country that is losing its ability to speak the truth needs someone to speak. When I saw the film I couldn’t help but imagine it being equal to Israel, which is not currently, but definitely could be. So I felt I had to do that. I come from a place that hasn’t improved and this is on the way’

What Nadav Lapid Said About ‘The Kashmir Files’

Notably, on the final day of the 53rd IFFI currently held in Goa, Nadav Lapid said, ‘I thank the Head of the Festival and the Director of Programming for the richness of the programme, its diversity. We saw seven films in the debutante competition and 13 films for the international competition. 14 of them had a cinematic quality and we also discussed that. However, the biggest shock to all of us was the 15th film ‘The Kashmir Files’. I found it a propaganda, vulgar and unfit for competition at this prestigious film festival. I feel comfortable sharing my feelings openly with you from this stage’..

Anupam Kher reacted to Lapid’s statement

Anupam Kher, who played an important role in ‘The Kashmir Files’, also expressed outrage at Nadav Lapid. He wrote in a tweet, ‘The truth of the Kashmir files has stuck like a thorn in the neck of some people. They can neither swallow nor expel. To disprove this truth his soul, which is already dead, is making a wretched mortal effort. This film of ours is now a movement’.
