Vivek Agnihotri, the director of the pathbreaking 'The Kashmir Files', has become a victim of fake news. Since Wednesday, a quote he never made has been falsely attributed to him by several social media influencers. He has been misquoted as saying that his film, 'The Vaccine War', will surely surpass the collections of 'Salaar'.
The Mumbai-based filmmaker today debunked the peddlers of fake news by saying that his small-budget films are not in a race of competition with Prabhas' mega-scale spectacles. "Who is spreading such fake news attributing fake quotes to me? I respect Prabhas who is a mega mega star doing mega mega budget films. We make non-starter, small-budget, people’s films. There is no comparison between us," Vivek Agnihotri wrote on Twitter.
The quote has been created out of thin area because of the victory of 'Kashmir Files' over 'Radhe Shyam' in 2022. When the two films clashed, it was thought that Prabhas' film will trump the other film. The opposite happened. Vivek's film made 10-12 times Prabhas' film in Hindi.
Vivek has creative ties with Sukumar and Ram Charan. He would have no reason to insult Prabhas when he is expanding his horizons.
