Faraz Ashraf, a Kashmiri journalist, claims that Dharma Production’s recent film ‘Shershaah’ used a vehicle with his personal registration number, which was used by militants in the film.
‘Since inception, Bollywood has only produced propaganda movies against Kashmir, where till now they were showing Kashmiris collectively as terrorists but this time they have gone too far in attacking me and my family,’ Ashraf tweeted.
He followed up with a tweet that included an image of a car from the film Shershaah, along with the words ‘Car shown in the movie’ beneath the image of the ‘real car’. The license plate numbers on both automobiles are identical.

Vishnuvardhan directed the biographical war film ‘Shershaah.’ Captain Vikram Batra, a Kargil martyr, is the subject of the film, which stars Sidharth Malhotra and Kiara Advani. Sidharth plays Captain Batra, while Kiara plays Dimple Cheema, Captain’s girlfriend.
Dharma Productions and Kaash Entertainment produced the film, which was released on Amazon Prime Video on August 31. After its debut, Amazon Prime revealed earlier in September that the film had been the platform’s most-watched film.
