The rating stands at 8.3 with over 2 lakh votes. While 94% of people gave it a 10 rating, 4% of people rated it 1. A further note on the website read, "IMDb publishes weighted vote averages rather than raw data averages.

When unusual voting activity is detected, an alternate weighting calculation may be applied in order to preserve the reliability of our system. To ensure that our rating mechanism remains effective, we do not disclose the exact method used to generate the rating."

Director Vivek Agnihotri took to his Twitter and reacted to the same. He wrote, 바카라œTHIS IS UNUSUAL AND UNETHICAL (sic).바카라

The film tells the true story of brutal sufferings endured by Kashmiri Pandits in 1990, during the Kashmir insurgency. 'The Kashmir Files' features actors Anupam Kher, Mithun Chakraborty, Darshan Kumar, Pallavi Joshi, and others.
