Filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri has staunchly defended his upcoming film The Bengal Files, describing it as a portrayal of the “Bengal genocide” rather than propaganda. In an interview with News18, he emphasized, *"I am as much Bengali as anyone else and I will fight for this truth to be known"*. Agnihotri alleges political pressure disrupted the trailer launch—first with a multiplex backing out, then by unidentified individuals cutting wires at the hotel event, which led to the screening being halted twice before eventually succeeding.
