The film Shikara brings the untold story of Kashmiri pandits to the silver screen. The movie stars Aadil Khan as Shiv Kumar Dhar and Sadia as Shanti Dhar in the lead giving us the storyline of flowering romance in the conflict-ridden state of Kashmir. The theme of the movie has garnered a lot of attention and there is no denial for the same.

A fortnight ago, the makers had held a special screening for Kashmiri Pandits. The special screening of about 30 minutes was attended by over 30 Kashmiri Pandit refugees from Jagti migrant camp in Jammu, out of which some have even worked on the film. In fact, it was also the first time that Vidhu Vinod watched the film on the big screen.
