The Accidental Prime Minister

Vivek Agnihotri’s directorial The Kashmir Files has been in controversy ever since it hit the silver screen. The film was recently slammed by Israel’s filmmaker Nadav Lapid at the closing ceremony of the 53rd International Film Festival of India held in Goa.

In his speech, Lapid called The Kashmir Files a vulgar, propaganda film and the jury was disturbed and shocked by its screening at IFFI. He further continued and said the film was inappropriate for an artistic competitive section of such a prestigious film festival.

Nadav Lapid’s statements on The Kashmir Files created a stir on social media and Israel’s ambassador to India Naor Gilon called his statements insensitive and presumptuous. Several noted personalities and the makers of The Kashmir Files also reacted to Lapid’s statement and condemn it.

However, this is not the first time that a film which became the highest-grossing film this year and earned more than Rs 300 crore worldwide has been criticised and tagged as a propaganda film.

Here’s a list of Bollywood films that created controversy.
