Mumbai/IBNS: Filmmaker Vidhu Vinod Chopra's upcoming Hindi film Shikara, which is set to narrate the mass exodus of Kashmiri Pandits from the valley in 1990, is slated to release on Feb 7.

The film will narrate the ethnic cleansing of Kashmiri Pandits from Jammu and Kashmir, which is now a Union Territory.

Shikara, which will be produced by Vinod Chopra Films and Fox Star Studios, stars Aadil Khan and Sadia in the lead roles.

On a cold, dark night of Jan 19, 1990, the Pandits including the Sikhs and Hindus were forced out of Kashmir.

Author Rahul Pandita is one who had well narrated the Kashmir exodus story in his book Our Moon Has Blood Clots detailing about the dark days of Kashmir.
