He addressed the allegations of the film being labeled as propaganda, stating, 'It saddens me to see people calling this film a propaganda piece. Initially, I felt anger when similar accusations were made against Kashmir Files and the first two installments of Dhurandhar. Those making such claims should feel ashamed.
