Joshi, who played a professor in a university that appeared to be similar to JNU in ‘The Kashmir Files’, added: “Vivek and I were always aware that there are elements that would not like to see the stark truth on the screen, but it is very unfortunate that a creative platform was used for a political agenda to preserve an old, false and jaded narrative about Kashmir.”

She concluded by noting: “We are overwhelmed by the way the people of India rose to defend ‘The Kashmir Files’ against he rude and vulgar statement of a genocide denier.” She assured her audience that ‘The Kashmir Files’ remains “a people’s film”.
