Akshay Kumar was one of the big Bollywood stars who had praised Vivek Agnihotri's blockbuster movie The Kashmir Files on a public platform. However, in a recent interview, the filmmaker now claims that the actor did it out of pressure, and not because he wanted to. Agnihotri claims that Akshay said so because he was in a spot when people asked him why Akshay's film (Bachchan Paandey) flopped when The Kashmir Files turned out to be a big hit. Bachchhan Paandey Screening Stopped in Odisha Cinema Hall, Akshay Kumar's Film Faces Disruption by Mob Over The Kashmir Files.
