Kapil Sharma denies Vivek Agnihotris’s claim that he refused to invite The Kashmir Files cast on show: ‘Ye sach nai hai’

Days after The Kashmir Files director Viveik Agnihotri said his team has not been invited on The Kapil Sharma Show, the comedian has tried to clear all doubt. He has reacted to one of his followers who said that he was now boycotting his show for this reason. Kapil Sharma took to Twitter and said that it was not true. Vivek Agnihotri’s film The Kashmir Files is based on the exodus and killings of Kashmiri Hindus from the state in 1990s.

Kapil was thanking singer Palash Sen for coming on his show. One of his followers reacted to his tweet, “#KashmirFiles ko promote karne se kyu ghabra gaye Kapil? Kis baat ka dar tha jo #VivekRanjanAgnihotri aur unki film ki suprasiddh starcast ko apne show par aane ka nyota nahi dia? (Why were you afraid of promoting The Kashmir Files? What were you afraid of that you didn’t allow Vivek Agnihotri and his celebrated star cast to come on your show)? I used to be a big fan of yours bro, but you have disappointed me and millions of #TKSS fans. Boycotting you.”

Replying to him, Kapil wrote on Twitter, “Yeh sach nahi hai rathore sahab aapne pujha isliye bata dia, baki jinhone sach maan hi liya unko explanation dene ka kya fayda (This is not true, I have replied because you asked me about it, but those who have already accepted it to be true, there is no use in giving them an explanation). Just a suggestion as an experienced social media user:- never believe in one sided story in today’s social media world. dhanyawaad.”

On Saturday, Vivek Agnihotri had replied to a Twitter user who had expressed his wish to see the star cast of The Kashmir Files on The Kapil Sharma Show. Vivek tweeted to him in response, “They refused to call on their show because we don’t have a big commercial star.”

Later, he replied to another Twitter user who expressed his wish to see The Kashmir Files actors Anupam Kher and Mithun Chakraborty on the show. Vivek replied, “I don’t get to decide who should be invited on @KapilSharmaK9 show. It’s his and his producers choice whom he wants to invite. As far as Bollywood is concerned, I’d say what once Mr. Bachchan was quoted saying about Gandhis: They are kings, we are the poor ones.”
