It very rarely happens that a film in its third week also gets good numbers. Especially, post the pandemic, things have changed a lot as only after one week run at the box office, the movies start showing a major dip in the collection. But, with The Kashmir Files, that’s not the case. The movie did well in its first week, and in the second week it did fantastic business at the box office, and now, it’s holding well in its third week as well.

A few days ago, when the film entered the 200 crore club, Anupam Kher, who plays the lead role in the film, had posted a heartfelt note on Instagram. The actor had written, “From #Saaransh to #TheKashmirFiles; Once upon a time there was a #KashmiriPandit boy called #Bittu. His father was a clerk whose name was #PushkarNath. Bittu worked very hard and became an actor called #AnupamKher. He continued to work hard and in 38 years did #522 films. Then came along a film called #TheKashmirFiles about the genocide of #KashmiriPandits. He was given the lead role in it. He gave this film literally his blood and soul and decided to name the character #PushkarNath as a tribute to his father and lakhs of other #Kashmiris who were the victims of horrible & senseless violence of terrorists. The pain, truth and tragedy of victims connected with the world. People made it their own tragedy all over the world. Bittu’s film is a roaring success today. From a clerk’s son to the member of the #200Crore club at 67 is what dreams are made of. This is called the ultimate #KuchBhiHoSaktaHai. Jai Ho! Thank you #Vivek #Pallavi #Abhishek and everybody for making it possible! #Humbled #Touched #TheKashmirFiles #KashmiriHindus #AllDreamsComeTrue.” Also Read - Shah Rukh Khan reveals he has 11 to 12 TVs at Mannat that cost around Rs 30-40 lakh; superstar's fans say, 'We feel poor'
