While releasing the DVD of the film, Prof Soz said that it was his dream to have Kashmir on the Railway map of India and as the records of proceedings in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha will show that he had struggled for extension of Railway Line to Kashmir for all these years. He said the Railway travel in Kashmir Valley from Qazigund to Baramulla has become a celebration for people and it is heartening that general trend is that people in Kashmir never try to travel without tickets.
Prof Soz further said it was his fond hope that after Qazigund getting connected with Banihal shortly, the efforts are redoubled to connect Kashmir with Jammu and Delhi.
Prof Soz also said that there will be a day when Jammu will get connected to Rajouri and Poonch and Baramulla will get connected with Kupwara and Uri.
