Director Vivek Agnihotri became famous all over the nation with his ‘The Kashmir Files’ which came out in 2022. This movie touched the hearts of many Indians who were unaware of the hardships and atrocities faced by the Kashmiri Pundits. He is currently working on ‘The Vaccine War’ which showcases the great work done by our scientists in providing the vaccine for COVID-19.
He is known for expressing his opinions in front of media about politics and Bollywood. He supports right wing and often ends up having heated arguments with the left wingers. Recently, he talked about the success of ‘Pathaan’. He said, “Bollywood makers will go back to their fundamental beliefs that audience is an idiot and you just need star power and lot of marketing hype to make a film successful. After Pathaan, I have a feeling that everybody will fall back to the same old system because Pathaan’s success is the success or in today’s environment I would choose the word victory. It’s the victory of the age-old, exploitative, nepotistic top-heavy system.”
He credited SRK for the movie’s huge success. Vivek claimed, “Pathaan worked purely because of the charisma, the fan following of Shah Rukh. The way he marketed it, the way he took it on his shoulders ‘that, okay it’s my film and I am responsible for it’ which is pretty good. I also think that some credit should also go to people who were making stupid statements against the film and people who were unnecessarily protesting and asking for boycott and these are different people from regular ‘Boycott Bollywood’ gang. There were also some violent factors who were saying we’ll burn this, we’ll burn that. They also contributed to this. And obviously our media channels.”
