The Tashkent Files crossed 80 days at the box office recently. And now the Indian Film & Television Directors’ Association (IFTDA) honoured Vivek Ranjan Agnihotri with a coveted trophy for delivering a stupendous Box Office success.

The film records a collection of INR 20 Cr plus with a shoestring making & marketing cost of 4 Cr and garnering a position among the top 5 “profitable films” status of 2019. The Tashkent Files, released on 12th April faced a slew of onslaughts week on week from the big budget and star led films like Kalank, Avengers, SOTY 2, Bharat and De De Pyar De. Yet it maintained a steady graph gliding through its 12th Week run.

The award was presented to Vivek Agnihotri by 4 times National Award Winner Madhur Bhandarkar and Sriram Raghvan.

Agnihotri has announced his next venture- The Kashmir Files which is based on the mass exodus of Kashmiri Pundits and the biggest ethnic cleansing that India has seen. The Tashkent Files is still running in theatres.
