Kher said that he received a call from the Tiger 3 actor and mentioned, "But individually, I must say, Salman Khan called me the other day and congratulated me."
Speaking about how the Hindi film industry is surprised at the film's performance at the box office, the senior actor said, "I think they're too much in a shock. Aisa kabhi hua nahi hai. Whenever a shocking thing happens, it's a very very strange reaction. Like ab Sholay bani thi, yeh mujhe Ramesh Sippy ji ne khud bataya, toh pehle teen week chali hi nahi qki logon ko samajh nahi aaya ki Hindustan me aisi film bhi ban sakti hai. Pehle teen week, it was declared a flop, but then it became a cult film. Hum Aapke Hain Kaun, premiere huwa tha toh the industry was saying, 'Oh my God! Yeh kya banaya diya hai, yeh toh shaadi ka video hai'. But it turned out to be the biggest grosser."
Speaking about The Kashmir Files, the movie is based on the brutal atrocities faced by the Kashmir Pandit community during the Kashmir insurgency. It features Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, Darshan Kumaar, Pallavi Joshi, Bhasha Sumbli and Chinmay Mandlekar.
