Vivek Agnihotri was disappointed when his film ‘The Kashmir Files’ was not selected for the Oscars in 2023. The director is happy that RRR won the award and made India proud, though. Minutes after the significant victory, he posted a message on Twitter congratulating the Naatu Naatu team and the Guneet Monga team from The Elephant Whispers.

The director later expressed his appreciation for the SS Rajamouli film in an interview with ETimes. Vivek is all accolades for the epic work but not without mentioning his film The Kashmir Files. It’s a terrific time for Indian cinema, he stated when discussing India winning the Oscar in 2023.
