The Kerala Story 2 controversy
Earlier, filmmaker Anurag Kashyap had slammed the film in harsh words saying, "The Kerala Story is a s*** movie. It is bull**** propaganda. Total bull****. Aisa kaun beef khilata hai? Aisa koi khichdi bhi nahi khilata hai (Who feeds someone beef like this? No one is fed even khichdi in this manner). Bakwaas (nonsense) picture. It is called crap.”
Kerala Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan, a few days ago, had also issued a statement, condemning the film. “We must collectively reject attempts to portray Kerala, a land of religious harmony that stands at the forefront of sustainable development and is a model in maintaining law and order, as a center of terrorism. It is the responsibility of each of us to ensure that Kerala's secular foundation is not undermined by false propaganda and to reject it by upholding the values of secularism and brotherhood,” Vijayan said.
Meanwhile, a petition has been filed in Kerala High Court seeking a halt on the release of The Kerala Story 2. The petitioner has stated, “The teaser shows the story of 3 women from Kerala, Madhya Pradesh, and Rajasthan who fall into the trap of terrorists who weaponise romance to convert unmarried girls and change the demography of the country. As the characters speak to the screen in the teaser, they make several statements that have the potential to create a law and order situation in the country." Meanwhile, the film has secured a U/A certification from the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC).
