at the trailer launch of his upcoming film Shikara: The Untold Story of Kashmiri Pandits, filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra said he condemns all kinds of violence -- the one that is taking place today, and the one that happened in Kashmir 30 years ago.
Chopra was referring to the horrific Kashmiri Pandit exodus from Kashmir that happened on January 19, 1990, which is the subject of his new film. The trailer launch on Tuesday, incidentally, saw a rare appearance by AR Rahman, who has scored the music of the film, along with the cast.
Speaking to the media at the event, Chopra gave his reaction to the Kashmir exodus as well as the ongoing violent attacks on students across the nation.
