Seasoned actor Anupam Kher recently took to Instagram to announce his upcoming release titled 'The Kashmir Files'. He also shared the first look of his character and penned down a note describing what the film means to him. Kher is going to portray a Srinagar based philosophy professor named Pushakr Nath Pandit, whose family includes his son, daughter in-law and two grandsons.

The film is very close to Anupam's heart and it is also a tribute to his father. He captioned the post as, "I have dedicated my performance in #TheKashmirFiles to the memory of my father #PushkarNath ji. I have also named my character in the film #Pushkar. It is more than a film for me. It is the #TRUTH of millions of #KashmiriPandits kept hidden from the world for more than 30years. Finally, it will be revealed on 26th Jan, 2022. Sharing my first look with you all! Please help us in spreading the truth. Thanks."

Actress Pallavi Joshi, who plays an important part in 'The Kashmir Files', shared her experience of working on this project during a conversation with IANS. She said, "Shooting a film like 'The Kashmir Files' completely in Kashmir was actually not possible because of unpredictable weather conditions and secondly nobody creates such difficult and challenging scenes at large there. We shot very critical and outdoor sequences in Kashmir.”

The film is set to release theatrically on 26th of January 2022.
