Vivek Agnihotri, the filmmaker of The Kashmir Files, responded to a tweet from a Madhya Pradesh IAS officer who requested that all of his film’s profits be donated to charity.
Niyaz Khan tweeted on Sunday that the director should contribute all of the film’s profits to the education of Kashmiri Pandit children and the construction of homes for them in Kashmir. “Income of Kashmir Files reached 150 crore. Great.People have given a lot of respect for Kashmiri Brahmins’ feelings. I would respect the film producer to transfer all earnings to the Brahmin children’s education and construction of homes for them in Kashmir. It will be a great charity,” the IAS officer had said.
