Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, the director of the successful yet controversial film The Kashmir Files, seems to have not much of liking for Pan Indian star Prabhas. Now and then he is indirectly taunting or criticizing Prabhas citing various reasons. Once again, he made some unnecessary comments on. Prabhas and Prashanth Neel’s Salaar, with which Vivek Agnihotri’s next release, The Vaccine War, is going to clash at the box office.
Vivek made some direct and indirect counters on Prabhas’s Adipurush the other day. As said above, he is releasing his next film, The Vaccine War on the same date as Salaar. He has stated that he has no fear of the clash with Salaar as his earlier film, The Kashmir files, released along with Radhe Shyam and it did wonders at the box office. Now he is expecting the same with this clash as well.
If we go into the past, Vivek Agnihotri’s The Kashmir Files had clashed with Prabhas’ Radhe Shyam on March 11th, 2022. While the former went on to be become a surprise blockbuster at the box office, the latter was a massive failure. Even during the time when the teaser of Salaar was released, within a few hours, director Vivek Agnihotri took to Twitter to voice his opinion in the form of a series of tweets.
“Now glamorizing extreme violence in cinema is also considered talent. Promoting nonsense cinema is considered a bigger talent. Promoting a non-actor as the biggest star is considered the biggest talent. And assuming the audience is super-dumb is the mother of all talent.” One of his tweets read.
Vivek Agnihotri is all set to clash with Salaar. The director, who took the country by storm with his film The Kashmir Files in 2022, intends to release his next film, The Vaccine War on the same date as the release of Prabhas’ Salaar, which is on 28th, September 2023.
