Ever
since
the
first-ever
motion
poster
of
Vidhu
Vinod
Chopra's
Shikara
was
released,
the
buzz
has
been
on
an
all-time
high
with
the
inching
release
of
the
film.
The
film
takes
inspiration
from
real-life
incidents
of
Kashmiri
Pandits
and
there
is
one
such
scene
that
draws
reference
from
the
life
of
Shikara's
writer
Rahul
Pandita!
In
the
trailer,
there
appears
a
scene
in
which
tomatoes
are
being
given
off
to
the
people
of
the
community
who
get
displaced.
Looking
at
how
there
is
a
hustle
for
the
conflict-ridden
pool
of
people
to
fetch
some,
which
is
right
out
of
the
life
of
Rahul
Pandita's
life-
a
testimony
to
the
fact
that
Shikara
has
much
more
is
the
store
which
has
been
kept
as
close
to
reality
as
possible.
The
director
Vidhu
Vinod
Chopra
has
made
this
film
as
a
tribute
to
his
late
mother
which
reflects
upon
the
significance
that
the
subject
and
its
portrayal
holds.
Shikara
brings
back
the
untold
story
of
Kashmiri
pandits
from
the
valley
of
1990
and
has
40,000
real
migrants
of
Jagti
and
other
camps
who
actually
shot
for
the
film.
The
movie
also
has
actual
footage
from
the
exodus
included
which
brings
it
even
closer
to
reality.
Recently,
the
makers
also
released
the
second
trailer
of
the
film
and
both
the
trailers
have
been
widely
appreciated
for
its
storyline
and
the
gut-wrenching
portions
from
the
pages
of
history.
The
makers
have
also
shown
the
film
to
Kashmiri
Pandits
in
New
Delhi
and
are
soon
holding
a
special
screening
for
the
community
in
Mumbai.
Vidhu
Vinod
Chopra
and
Rahul
Pandita
also
attended
the
coveted
Jaipur
Literature
Festival
2020
and
were
part
of
a
special
panel
discussion
at
the
event.
Talking
about
the
whole
subject,
the
director
also
expressed
his
hope
to
open
a
film
school
in
Kashmir,
one
day.
Shikara
is
all
set
to
release
on
7th
February
2020.
