Speaking of this, recently the film attracted controversy after Delhi CM Arvind Kejriwal made some insensitive remarks about the film. He was slammed by several netizens and actor Anupam Kher.

For the unversed, the Delhi CM during an assembly session demanded Vivek Agnihotri to upload the film on Youtube so that it becomes free for everyone to watch instead of making it tax-free.

 Now, in a recent interaction with Times Now, Arvind Kejriwal said that his statement was presented in the wrong way. CM Kejriwal was quoted saying, "Kashmir Hindus ke saath bahut bada anayaay hua, wo bahut badi trasadi thi. Kai logo ki jaane gayi, kai logo ko apne ghar chhod ke jaana pada."
