Anupam Kher, whose role in the recently released ‘The Kashmir Files’ has received praise, has reacted to the issue over the film’s cast not being invited to ‘The Kapil Sharma Show.’

Vivek Agnihotri, a filmmaker, had accused Kapil Sharma and the show’s producers of not inviting the makers of “The Kashmir Files” to appear on their show because “the movie doesn’t have major commercial names in it.”

This provoked a backlash, and the comedian was ridiculed on Twitter as a result.

The filmmaker’s charges infuriated internet users, who urged a “Kapil Sharma boycott.”

Anupam Kher, the film’s lead actor, has now stepped in to save Sharma. During a Times Now interview, Kher disclosed that he was invited to the event, but it being a serious movie, he didn’t think it was the right venue for the film’s promotion.

Kher stated that he had appeared on the show several times and that the severity of his most recent release and the light-hearted character of the show didn’t mix well.

After Kher’s statement, Kapil Sharma took to Twitter to share the interview and poke fun at the haters.
