The film depicts the life and exodus of Kashmiri Hindus in the valley during the 1990s. Both the audience and film critics are praising the plot, which is modeled on the exodus and massacre of the Kashmiri Hindus.
The Kashmir Files Has a Rating of 8.3/10 IMDb
The Kashmir Files presently has a rating of 8.3 out of a potential 135,000 votes. While 94% of users granted it a 10 rating, only 4% assigned it a 1 rating. “IMDb , shows weighted vote averages instead of raw data averages,” according to IMDb. The clear explanation is that, while we collect and evaluate all user votes, not all votes has the equal effect (or “weight”) on the ultimate rating. In order to maintain the system’s trustworthiness, if unusual voting actions are detected, an alternate weighting formula may be employed. We do not reveal the actual procedure employed to calculate the rating to ensure that our rating mechanism operates correctly.”
