Vivek Agnihotri strongly reacted to John Abraham’s comment on The Kashmir Files, calling it as the right wing’s ideological movies. He mocked John for being known only for bikes, bodybuilding, and protein, suggesting he avoid talking about films

John Abraham and Vivek Agnihotri
Vivek Agnihotri, who is actively promoting his upcoming film The Bengal Files, slammed John Abraham. In a recent interview, the actor commented on The Kashmir Files swaying people politically, and his comment did not go down well with the filmmaker. He has now hit back at John asking him to focus on protein, body and bikes instead of films.
In an interview with NDTV, he said, “John is not a historian, an intellectual, a thinker, or a writer. He has been making very, very jingoistic films like Satyameva Jayate too. He made Diplomat and all those kinds of films. He must have said (that) for a variety of reasons. If you had told me some great historian had said this I would have understood it. I don’t care about what he’s saying. When was India’s atmosphere not hyper political? When was it that Hindu-Muslim and caste issues never existed in India?"
