Baramulla

While some are calling Baramulla far better than The Kashmir Files in portraying the plight of Kashmiri Pandits, many from the community have spoken about the memories that resurfaced after watching the film. Check out the janta’s reactions!

When horror becomes personal, it hits much closer to home - something that’s happening with the film Baramulla. Produced and created by Aditya Dhar, the film is a horror thriller that, through the investigation of a missing boy, turns into a haunting retelling of the horrors many Kashmiri Pandits have witnessed in the snow-covered valleys. As ghosts, the recurring symbol of a white rose, and a mysterious man take over the story, the film directed by Aditya Suhas Jambhale and starring Manav Kaul in the lead becomes less about fear and more about healing, memory, and unresolved vengeance. The janta can’t stop talking about it. Many Kashmiri Pandits have shared their reactions online, discussing the symbolism in the film. Whether it is about expalining the meaning of food like rice and fish or of the symbolic ghostly metaphors and reflecting on the lingering “ghosts” of their own pasts that the movie brought back. Beyond the community, the janta are appreciating the film for its unique storytelling, using the horror-thriller genre not just to depict the plight of the Pandits, but also to comment on the continuing threat of radicalisation in Kashmir.
