Announcing the re-release of his movie, Vivek tweeted, “#TheKashmirFiles is re-releasing on 19th January – The Kashmiri Hindu Genocide Day. This is the first time ever a film is releasing twice in a year. If you missed watching it on BIG SCREEN, book your tickets NOW👇.”
Not just that, the re-release poster of the film also claims that The Kashmir Files is “people’s blockbuster.”
Many people took to Twitter to share their views on the re-release of Vivek Agnihotri’s hit film The Kashmir Files, which is going to clash with Shah Rukh Khan’s new film ‘Pathaan.’

One user wrote, “#TheKashmirFiles is being used as a tool to dent #Pathan .. nafrat ki aandhi chalrahi hai apni bhi patang udalo, aur yeh tou opportunist hai .. #PathanDekhegaHindustan.”
Another said, “Koi nahi dekhne wala Tera Kashmir piles (Nobody is going to watch your Kashmir Piles).”
A third slammed Vivek, “Iss baar to Kashmiri pandito ke rehabilitation liye kuch de de bhikari.”
Some even called Vivek a “propaganda filmmaker” while others showed eagerness to re-watch the film.
“I am going to watch AGAIN, though it is painful to watch,” one person wrote.
Another tweeted, “Hey u propaganda Film maker.”
If The Kashmir Files re-releases on January 19, it will clash at the box office with SRK-Deepika Padukone’s film Pathaan, which is scheduled to hit theatre screens on January 25.
Pathaan has already courted massive controversy for Deepika Padukone’s ‘bhagwa’ outfit in the song Besharam Rang. Many have even called for a boycott of the film.
