Mission Kashmir is a 2000 Indian Hindi-language action thriller film directed and produced by Vidhu Vinod Chopra.
The film stars Sanjay Dutt, Hrithik Roshan, Jackie Shroff, Preity Zinta, and Sonali Kulkarni.
The film clashed with Aditya Chopra's musical romance Mohabbatein which starred Amitabh Bachchan, Shah Rukh Khan and Aishwarya Rai in lead roles.
His team kills Malik and his men, but a bystander couple dies in the crossfire, leaving their son Altaaf as the sole survivor.
Inayat's wife Neelima convinces him to adopt the traumatized boy but he fears Altaaf might seek vengeance if he learns the truth.
Altaaf visits his childhood friend and television personality Sufiya Parvez and, though he falls in love with her, uses her to try and blow up the TV tower of Srinagar, according to the plan.
Inayat offers a deal: allowing Hilal to continue with Mission Kashmir in exchange for killing Altaaf to avenge Neelima's death.
"[4] Savitha Padmanabhan of The Hindu stated, "Mission Kashmir might have its faults but it is definitely a cut above the rest of the commercial Hindi films that have been made on terrorism."
[7] Vinayak Chakravorty of Hindustan Times, however, rated the film 3.5 stars, calling it "a good show" and praising Dutt's performance as "perfect".
According to the Indian trade website Box Office India, with around 1.5 million units sold, the film's soundtrack album was the year's third highest-selling.
