Chetan Bhagat on The Kashmir Files
Taking a dig at the critics, the 47-year-old writer finds it hilarious that people who ‘keep asking for freedom of expression’ have trouble with The Kashmir Files.
He took to Twitter and wrote, “Funny how those who keep asking for freedom of expression have a problem with freedom of expression when it comes to #TheKashmirFiles (sic).”

Previously, he had also applauded The Kashmir Files and Vivek Agnihotri for bringing out the harsh reality to the public. On Twitter, he wrote, “A film that came like an orphan. Much like the Kashmiri Pandits it depicts, nobody cared! Intellectuals judged it and the people behind it. Yet, it soared and how. Salute and respect to @vivekagnihotri @AnupamPKher and the entire team of #KashmirFiles for being an inspiration to all! (sic).”
