Talking about the invitation, an elated Vivek Agnihotri, director of The Tashkent Files stated, ` So many films are made and released during any given year and only a handful lands at The Rashtrapati Bhavan so by that count it is a once in a lifetime opportunity. It is celebratory moment for everyone involved in the film and extremely reassuring for me as a filmmaker`.
Agnihotri added,` I'm beginning to get pre release jitters and keeping my fingers crossed that everyone watching the film at The Rashtrapati Bhavan and Films Division enjoys it. The box office feedback is out there for everyone to see so I have my audience's verdict but this verdict is equally critical`.
The Tashkent Files has marked a high rating IMDB and stands at 8.5 which is even higher than the blockbuster 3 idots (8.4).
