MUMBAI: Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri has always presented the truth to society by addressing subjects that have never been openly discussed. His films speak volumes about his courageous approach to bringing change by fearlessly showcasing topics that need to be shown to the audience. While he is equally bold in his personal life, always expressing his opinions on various issues, this time, he has raised his voice against the Nagpur violence, stating that the Urban Naxal ecosystem is waging a cultural jihad against films.
Taking to his social media, Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri shared a post that reads,
"The #UrbanNaxal ecosystem is waging a cultural jihad against our films—#TheKashmirFiles and #Chaava are under attack because they dare to awaken the nation.
Defeat them in this battle."

The filmmakers statement came in response to accusations that Chhaava, along with films like The Kashmir Files and The Sabarmati Report, is contributing to social polarization. One netizen pointed out that such movies deepen societal divides. A Netizen wrote,
"The Kashmir files polarised the society.
The Sabarmati Report polarised the society.
Chhava Movie polarised the society.
But The Kerala Story could not shake even 0.001% of Kerala's social fabric.
My respect for the people of Kerala 🙏♥️"
To this, Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri responded,
"Before #TheKashmirFiles the society wasn’t polarised at all. Muslim terrorists in Kashmir were helping Hindus find their houses and the corpses of their loved ones. JKLF never existed. See, how in Bengal, Islamists help in bringing down hanging bodies of Hindu women from trees."
