Alia’s mom and actor Soni Razdan, who is part of the cast of has been tweeting about the film and appealing to the CBFC to give the film to certify the film and allow for its release.
Ashvin @ashvinkumar knows Kashmir so well. That’s the first thing I thought when I read this script. And that’s exactly why I so wanted to be a part of this project.
