In 1990, hundreds of thousands of Hindus of the Kashmir Valley were forced to flee the Kashmir Valley as a result of being targeted Islamist insurgents. What is it to know the agony of being a refugee in your own country? The year 1990 saw the biggest forced migration in independent India whereby more than 400,000 Kashmiri Pandits had to flee from their own home. Almost 3 decades later, most have been unable to return. Shikara is the story of resilience in the face of insurmountable odds. It’s also the story of a love that remains unextinguished through 30 years of exile. A timeless love story in the worst of times. Release date: On theatres (India) on 7th February, 2020.
