Detailing the entire controversy and exactly what happened, Vivek Agnihotri explains how a simple and innocent suggestion shouldn't have been misunderstood.?

“I was in Kashmir to shoot my film, The Kashmir Files. A lot of local people, young artists, creative people, actors, RJs always want to meet me wherever I go. So, I invited people for dinner and I requested my hotel to make Wazwan for everybody. Since I am a vegetarian, I requested to make a vegetarian thali but they said in Kashmir it is not possible but I enquired with some locals and found out that while it's true that Wazwan is always non - vegetarian, getting a vegetarian thali is possible too," said the director.?

"They served me the thali and I posted about it. It was a simple innocent tweet but then immediately after the tweet, all the separatists, academicians, etc started trolling me. Then all these terrorism sympathetic journalists and newspapers started reporting it," shared Vivek.?

Explaining the circumstances that led him to delete the tweet, Vivek Agnihotri said the abuse and trolling got out of hand.?

"It was impossible for the local guest to survive this abuse and trolling. In fact, some women guests were with me. They were threatened, trolled, abused all kinds of things that happened to me. I thought that is not right for them to suffer because of a tweet of mine. Therefore, I deleted it with great pain and disappointment," said the filmmaker.?
