Director Vivek Agnihotri's The Kashmir Files, which is based on the exodus of the Kashmiri Pandits in the 1990, has crossed Rs 200 crore mark within 2 weeks of its theatrical release. The film has become the highest grossing movie post pandemic and it even triumphed over Akshay Kumar starrer Bachchhan Paandey at the box office. Lauding the phenomenal run of The Kashmir Files, Akshay Kumar admitted that it severely hampered his film's business.
Speaking at the fourth edition of the Chitra Bharati Film Festival 2022, Akshay said, "The Kashmir Files came like a huge wave in the country that shook all of us. Wo aur baat hai ki meri picture ko bhi dooba diya (It’s a different thing that it has also sabotaged my own film)." Reacting to his remark, Vivek Agnihotri tweeted, "Thanks Akshay Kumar for your appreciation for #TheKashmirFiles."
