The Kerala Story 2 director Kamakhya Narayan Singh has slammed filmmaker Anurag Kashyap after he called the upcoming film "total bull****" and "bull**** propaganda." In one of the scenes in the trailer, one of the protagonists was force-fed beef by a Muslim family. Reacting to it, Anurag said that, let alone beef, no one can even force-feed anyone khichdi (porridge).

The Kerala Story 2 director skewers Anurag Kashyap

The Kerala Story 2 director criticised Anurag Kashyap over his comment on the beef-eating scene in the film.

Now taking to X (formerly Twitter), Kamakhya posted a video saying that Anurag "has become mentally unstable." He said, "Anurag Kashyap has said that no one feeds anyone, even khichdi (porridge), like this. I totally agree. Nobody can even feed anyone laddoo (sweets) in this manner either. But unfortunately, in our society, our innocent girls are fed beef to convert them. This is a crime."

Kamakhya Narayan Singh calls Anurag mentally unstable

Kamakhya continued, "Problem yeh hai ki Anurag Kashyap ji ab maansik roop se durbal hogaye hai. Unko har cheeze se dikkat hai--Brahmano se, Netflix se, film industry se. Is aadmi ko har cheeze se dikkat hai (The problem is that Anurag Kashyap has become mentally unstable. He has problems with everything, including Brahims, Netflix, and the film industry)."

Kamakhya also said, "His films, for the last few years, are flops. I pray to God that He gives him good sense. As for Kerala Story 2, it is based on facts. People are liking its trailer. Thank you." Sharing the video, he captioned the post in Hindi, "Dear Anurag sir, the issue isn't what was shown in the film—khichdi, beef, or something else. The real question is consent and coercion."

“You can't even feed someone khichdi against their will, so if a film raises the issue of forced change or pressure, calling it hate-mongering is intellectual dishonesty. Your lies are creative freedom, and our truth is propaganda! Debate should be on facts and data—not shutting down discussion by slapping on labels like 'bull****' or ‘bootlicker’,” he concluded.

What Anurag said about The Kerala Story 2

Anurag, who was in Kochi to attend the Filmfare Awards South, was questioned by the paparazzi whether he had seen the trailer of The Kerala Story 2. He replied, "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.”

He added, “They just want to make money and please everybody; divide people. The filmmaker is a greedy man. He just wants to make money.”

About The Kerala Story 2

The film is written by Amarnath Jha and Vipul Amrutlal Shah. The Kerala Story 2, produced by Vipul, is all set to release in theatres on February 27.

The trailer of the upcoming film has sparked polarising reactions. The makers of The Kerala Story 2 released the trailer of the sequel recently, which showcased how Hindu women were trapped by the Islamic men in the name of love. Their parallel lives show how romance and rebellion transform into control and silence, turning love into a weapon that destroys freedom.
