Vidhu Vinod Chopra’s latest directorial Shikara starring debutants Aadil Khan and Sadia released earlier this year. The film that is winning the hearts of the audience recently made its digital debut on Amazon Prime Video and the adoration by fans has only increased.
And among the many admirers of this film, is the young and talented Rajkummar Rao. The Stree actor, who is practicing social distancing by staying at home like the rest of the country in this lockdown caused by coronavirus, saw Shikara just days after its digital premiere and couldn’t stop raving about it.
He shared his admiration for the masterpiece, made by Vidhu Vinod Chopra, with the debutant actors Aadil Khan and Sadia by personally messaging them and praising the promising work they did in the movie. He appreciated the two newcomers and their talents. Being one of the leading actors of today’s generation, this praise coming from Rajkummar Rao was surely a note of encouragement for Aadil and Sadia.
Shikara is based on the lives of Kashmiri Pandits and what they faced during the time of Islamist insurgency in Jammu and Kashmir in the early 1900s. The movie takes us through the journey and the struggles of a Kashmiri Hindu couple as they try to survive in dire situations.
