Anurag Kashyap on The Kerala Story 2
When Anurag Kashyap was questioned about ‘The Kerala Story 2’ and its ‘beef scene’ outside Kochi Airport, he strongly condemned it. The director says- ‘The Kerala Story is complete nonsense. This is a complete propaganda film. Who feeds beef like this, no one even feeds Khichdi like this. I don’t know what the intention of this movie is.

Sensing the communal conspiracy and outright lies hidden in the first part, Kerala will once again reject this attempt to defame our secular fabric. It is shocking that stories designed to incite communal riots are given a free hand, while critical expressions of art are suppressed. We have to unite and oppose these attempts to prove our harmonious land as a base of terrorism. Truth will always prevail.
