Kher unhappy with Bharadwaj dedicating National Award to Kashmiri Pandits.Filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, who has dedicated the five National Film Awards that his film “Haider” has bagged, to Kashmiri Pandits, has left veteran actor Anupam Kher irked.
Filmmaker Vishal Bhardwaj, who has dedicated the five National Film Awards that his film “Haider” has bagged, to Kashmiri Pandits, has left veteran actor Anupam Kher irked.“I dedicate my (all five National) awards to them (Kashmiri Pandits) because I feel their tragedy was very big and a complete film should have been made on them.

If we would have added just a small piece based on them in the film, then it would have been unfair,” Bhardwaj, said in Mumbai on Tuesday after a bouquet of five National Film Awards was announced for the movie. This statement certainly didn’t go well with Anupam Kher.

Kher, who is a Kashmiri Pandit and has been a strong voice for the perils of the community, tweeted, “While I congratulate Vishal Bhardwaj for National Awards but dedicating them to #KashmiriPandits genocide is such a fraudish thing to do.
When was last time Vishal Bhardwaj spoke about d plight of #KashmiriPandits? (sic)”
Anupam also revisited the controversy that surrounded ‘Haider’.“He in fact humiliated us by doing dance of devil at our temple.The so called 'Hindu' centric Govt. gave Haider 5 National Awards which many felt was anti-Hindu & anti Indian Army.This is NOT Talibanism (sic),” he added, referring to Bhardwaj's comment that the Central Board of Film Certification is behaving like the Taliban.
