“#KashmirFiles ko promote karne se kyun ghabra gaye Kapil? Kis baat ka darr tha jo #VivekRanjanAgnihotri aur unke film ki starcast ko apne show par aapne ka nyta nahi diya? I used to be a big fan of yours bro, but you have disappointed me and millions of #TKSS fans. Boycotting U," wrote a Twitter user.

Reacting to the comment, Kapil said, "Yeh sach nahi hai rathore sahaab. Aapne poocha isliye bata diya, baaki jinhone sach maan hi liya unko explanation dene ka kya faayda. Just a suggestion as a experienced social media user:- never believe in one sided story in today’s social media world ???? dhanyawaad".

यह सच नहीं है rathore साहब ???? आपने पूछा इसलिए बता दिया, बाक़ी जिन्होंने सच मान ही लिया उनको explanation देने का क्या फ़ायदा. Just a suggestion as a experienced social media user:- never believe in one sided story in today’s social media world ???? dhanyawaad ???? https://t.co/pJxmf0JlN5

On Monday, Vivek Agnihotri took to his Twitter handle to respond to a fan who requested him to promote The Kashmir Files on Kapil's show. Responding to it, Vivek said, "I don’t get to decide who should be invited on @KapilSharmaK9 show. It’s his and his producer’s choice whom he wants to invite. As far as Bollywood is concerned, I’d say what once Mr. Bachchan was quoted saying about Gandhis: Vo raja hai hum rank.”

In another tweet, the filmmaker claimed that the show refused to promote his film as it did not have a big commercial star. “They refused to call us on their show because we don’t have big commercial star. #FACT,” read the tweet.
