The Kashmir Files : IFFI head apologizes

IFFI head Nadav Lapid comments on Vivek Agnihotri's film The Kashmir Files resulted in a huge controversy. It not only snowballed into a controversy between those who are for and against The Kashmir Files but forced even the Israeli Government to step in and its Envoy Naor Gilon to come up with an apology letter.

However, with Nadav Lapid sticking to his comments, even the actor Anupam Kher who played the pivotal role in The Kashmir Files and director Vivek Agnihotri came up with strong comments. Vivek Agnihotri promised to come up with another film and he announced  ‘The Kashmir Files Unreported’, ‘to bring out the whole truth.

In the midst of all this, Nadav Lapad tendered an apology. He said “I didn’t want to insult anyone, and my aim was never to insult people or their relatives, who have suffered. I totally totally totally apologize if that’s the way they interpreted.”
