Now, Director Vivek Agnihotri gets leg injury is all over the tabloids.
According to sources, “It was like any other day on the shoot and after the wrap. As he was going to the base, his leg got twisted. And there was swelling. But when it started aching badly, was the time he was taken to a doctor. And everyone gets to know that it wasn’t any ordinary injury but a hairline fracture. The unit got scared and was very much under stress when they got to know that it was not just a minor twist but a fracture. Their first concern was how would they continue with the shoot. And Agnihotri knew this is going to affect the entire shoot. Vivek decided that he would complete the shoot with the support of a crutch.”
Director Vivek Agnihotri gets leg injury:
When we spoke to Agnihotri on this, he went on saying, “We are doing an extremely hectic schedule in Uttarakhand and Kashmir for my film ‘The Kashmir Files’. And it involves a lot of actions and hard work. In one of those scenes I ran, and I twisted my knee, and the second day I fell into a pit. And I think there is a very major sprain. I am not able to walk or get up. But I cannot halt the shoot because we can’t afford.”
He adds, “For me, it is not just a film it’s a life mission of millions who are expecting this film. I feel responsible towards them we had to postpone our schedule. During the corona time in March and finally. We are shooting here. And also, there was inspiration created by Mithun (Chakraborty) Da. He felt so ill, and the very next day, he was back to shoot. So, how can I take a break? So, my entire unit was suggesting, and doctors were saying that I must give break. But I am trying my best to finish the film on schedule. And all I have to say is whatever happens show must go on.”
Following the critical acclaim of Agnihotri’s Tashkent Files in April 2019. The filmmaker believes The Kashmir Files is a small step towards letting the world, especially his countrymen, know about the plight of Kashmiri Hindus. Featuring Anupam Kher in a pivotal role, The Kashmir Files is slated to release in 2021.
