Mumbai, December 20 - National Award-winning filmmaker, Vivek Agnihotri is gearing up for his next "The Kashmir Files", which is based on the exodus of the Kashmiri Pandit community in 1990. The film features one of the finest casting coups including Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, Darshan Kumaar, Pallavi Joshi, and Chinmay Mandlekar in prominent roles among others.

Meanwhile, Vivek Agnihotri's wife, Pallavi Joshi, who is portraying a challenging role in the film, opens up about the challenges and threats while shooting for the film in Kashmir. She shares her experience of shooting in Kashmir for the film.



"Shooting a film like 'The Kashmir Files' completely in Kashmir was actually not possible because of unpredictable weather conditions and secondly nobody creates such difficult and challenging scenes at large there. We shot very critical and outdoor sequences in Kashmir", Pallavi said.

The actress further opens up on getting permission for the shooting of the film in Kashmir. "We had no problem securing the same to shoot in Kashmir but the kind of film that we were making and how Vivek is perceived by the people, there was threat to our life and that's why we had approximately 16-17 people as security with us, right from J&K Police and CRPF and our car was always surrounded by them", she said.

"Even when we were shooting in shikaras, we were constantly chased by 2-3 other shikaras, keeping an eye on us in terms of security. As filmmakers, we go and shoot anywhere but when you know you have huge security with you, that's when the threat factor comes alive. Having said all that, we have managed to navigate through it and come back", she added.

Vivek Agnihotri reveals there are 11 including 5 National award-winning actors who will surprise you with their extraordinary performances in the film, which is scheduled to release in theaters on the occasion of Republic Day 2022. It is produced by Zee Studios along with Tej Narayan Agarwal, Abhishek Agarwal, Pallavi Joshi, and Vivek Agnihotri.
