New Delhi: Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri's 'The Kashmir Files'  presented the grave issue of the genocide of Kashmiri Pandits in the valley back in the early 90s. While the film has received tremendous love and support from the audience, there have always been some groups who were against it. As the film was a sheer example of freedom of expression, it has now led to the issue of a Fatwa against the filmmaker.
