'You Are Muslim, You'll Support Terrorism,' Adil Hussain Trolled Over 'The Kashmir Files' Tweet
After Bollywood actor Adil Hussain said that The Kashmir Files could have been tender, people troll him mercilessly. A Twitter user said that a Muslim will support terrorism.
The videos of people coming out of theatres crying after watching Vivek Agnihotri's The Kashmir Files are all over Twitter.
While some people are calling it "the most hard-hitting" and "soul-shaking" movie, there are some people who are calling it a propaganda movie. The film has kicked a political storm in the nation.
In the midst of this all, actor Adil Hussain who has recently made it to the Forbes list of 'outstanding actors', took to Twitter to express his opinion on the much-talked-about movie about "genocide of Kashmiri Pandit Community In 1990".

In his tweet about The Kashmir Files, Adil Hussain said that the truth must be spoken tenderly or else it loses its beauty. He then explained:
Truth must be spoken!No doubt about it. But must be spoken Tenderly. Else purpose of speaking the truth loses its beauty. And the impact is reactive.Not responsive. We, for sure, don't want to fuel a reactive society but nourish a responve-sible one. Art Should not be reactive.??

Following this, Adil Hussain was mercilessly trolled on Twitter.
"My 16 year old mum was in a rice box for 4 hours gasping for breath. They were banging front door and Naani switched off lights and huddled awaiting the fate. Hungry for days they left at 1 a.m. with 3 handbags. Please tell how would my mum make it tender for me?," wrote a user.
"It doesn't matter how good you are in acting, if you are Muslim then no matter what you'll support Terrorism and Jihadi Mindset. When Webseries like #Leila or movies like #Mulk gets a release we don't see Muslim protesting then it's freedom of speech and truth," wrote another one.

The purpose of speaking truth is not to beautify things but to bring out real, raw emotions.
Sach kadwa hota hai.
Telling the truth is not equivalent to running a bakery. Why must it be sweetened to taste? https://t.co/5SacSfVx9a

Following the release of The Kashmir Files, Vivek Agnihotri has been granted Y security. This move came weeks after Agnihotri claimed a threat to his life over the release of his film. The decision to provide Agnihotri with the fourth-highest category security in the country has been taken by the Ministry of Home Affairs, the sources said.
While the film is being pushed by several BJP-ruled state governments by either offering tax concessions or giving government employees special leave to watch it, the Opposition has, however, termed the film one-sided and too violent.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi said the film has rattled the "entire ecosystem" which claims to be the torchbearer of freedom of expression but does not want the truth to be told.
