The teaser of this Sudipto Sen movie claimed that over 32,000 women from Kerala were recruited by the IS. Facing flak for the number, the producer has agreed to remove the teaser from social media.
PM Modi also mentioned the movie in his recent speech in Karnataka and said, “The movie ‘The Kerala story’ is trying to expose the consequences of terrorism in a society, especially in a state like Kerala which is a beautiful land of hardworking, talented and intellectual people. The Congress party is now trying to ban the film and support the terror elements. It only knows to ban things and completely ignore development. The party even has a problem with me chanting ‘Jai Bajarang Bali’“ The Kerala Story has hit the big screens on May 5.
