    Digital Desk: Despite Bollywood’s silence on the film 'The Kashmir Files', which is based on the exodus of Kashmiri Pandits in 1990. Yami Gautam has spoken out in support of the film. The actress and her filmmaker husband Aditya took to Twitter to share their thoughts on the film and encourage others to watch it.

    “You might have seen numerous videos of Kashmiri Pandits breaking down in the theatres after watching #TheKashmirFiles. The emotion is real. It shows how long we kept our pain and tragedy repressed as a community. We didn’t have any shoulder to cry on and no ear to hear our pleas,” Aditya wrote on Twitter.

    Yami retweeted Aditya’s message on her timeline, saying that marrying him, a Kashmiri Pandit, had made her more conscious of the valley’s exodus. “Being married to a Kashmiri Pandit, I know firsthand of the atrocities that this peace-loving community has gone through. But the majority of the nation is still unaware. It took us 32 years and a film to get to know the truth. So please watch and support #TheKashmirFiles,” she wrote on Twitter.

    In June last year, Yami Gautam married ‘Uri: The Surgical Strike’ director Aditya Dhar in a private ceremony. The 32-year-old then uploaded a photo from their wedding venue, explaining that they were both private people who liked to marry in front of their family and close friends.

    “With the blessings of our family, we have tied the knot in an intimate wedding ceremony today. Being very private people, we celebrated this joyous occasion with our immediate family. As we embark on the journey of love and friendship, we seek all your blessings and good wishes,” Yami captioned their wedding photo.

    Speaking on the work front, Yami’s schedule is jammed with commitments. Her next films include ‘Dasvi’ and ‘Lost,’ as well as ‘OMG 2’, ‘Dhoom Dham,’ and others that will be unveiled soon.
