The Israeli envoy last week took to Twitter to highlight the hate he received, following the row involving an Israeli filmmaker's remarks on the movie "The Kashmir Files" at the Goa film festival.
Israeli director and International Film Festival of India (IFFI) jury chair Nadav Lapid, who gained notoriety for calling The Kashmir Files "vulgar propaganda," has issued an apology. Days after making the remark, Nadav said his 'aim was never to insult people or their relatives'.
International Film Festival of India (IFFI) jury head and Israeli filmmaker Nadav Lapid had called the film 'a propaganda' and 'vulgar' at the festival's closing ceremony on Monday.
Gilon, in a series of tweets, rebuked Lapid and emphasized how the friendship between the people and the states of India and Israel is very strong and will survive the damage inflicted by him.
After IFFI 2022 jury head Nadav Lapid called The Kashmir Files vulgar, actor Darshan Kumaar, who played a key role in the movie, said that the film is based on reality not on vulgarity.
