The Kerala High Court issued a notice to the producers and the Censor Board

The Kerala High Court had issued a notice to the makers of ‘Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond’ as well as the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) last week. The notice was issued after hearing a petition seeking cancellation of the censor certificate issued to the film.

The petition has objected to the teaser and trailer of ‘The Kerala Story 2’. In the petition, Sridev Namboothiri, a complainant from Kannur district, said that though the film depicts the story of women from three different states and their experiences, the film’s title and some scenes try to defame the state by projecting a wrong image of Kerala.
