Filmmaker Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri, known for The Tashkent Files, The Kashmir Files, and The Vaccine War, recently issued a warning to Indian film industry leaders regarding U.S. President Donald Trump’s proposed 100% tariff on foreign films. He described the move as disastrous and warned it could lead to the collapse of the Indian film industry.
As U.S. President Donald Trump took to social media to announce a 100% tariff on any and all movies produced outside the United States, Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri took to his own social media platform, writing: "ALERT: Trump's 100% Movie Tariff Threatens Indian Cinema”.
“Trump's 100% tariff on movies is a disastrous move. If this absurdity prevails, India's struggling film industry will collapse entirely, with no one to save it. Indian film leaders must wake up, unite, and fight this threat instead of chasing paparazzi and self-glorification”, the filmmaker wrote.
