Vivek Agnihotri has thanked Akshay Kumar for showering praises on his movie, The Kashmir Files. Aside from praising Vivek’s movie, Akshay also admitted that the box office success of The Kashmir Files caused his new film, Bachchhan Paandey, to have an unfortunate run at the ticket windows.

In the video that Vivek posted on Twitter, Akshay Kumar said, “Hum sabko desh ki kahaniyan kehni hai, Kuch jaani maani, kuch ankahi, ansuni. Jaise Vivek ji ne Kashmir Files bana kar ek bahut bade dardnaak sach ko saamne rakha hai.Ye film ek aisi wave ban kar aayi jisne hum sabko jhinjhor kar diya hai . Wo aur baat haiki meri picture ko bhi duba diya hai. (All of us, we want to tell stories of our country. Some may be well-known, others not as much. For example, Vivek has made The Kashmir Files that brought a painful truth to the fore and shook us all. That it caused my film to flop is a different issue).”

Akshay was speaking at the ongoing Chitra Bharati Film Festival in Bhopal. The festival is being held from March 25 to March 27 at Makhanlal Chaturvedi National University of Journalism and Communication. Posting the video on his Twitter page, Vivek wrote, “Thanks @akshaykumar for your appreciation for #TheKashmirFiles.”
