The Kerala Story-2: Film surrounded by controversies

New Delhi: Movie ‘The Kerala Story’ sequel of, ‘The Kerala Story-2- Goes Beyond’is at the center of controversy. Even at the time of the first part, there was fierce opposition to this film, and it was called a propaganda movie. Now that its second part is about to be released, Kerala Congress has also started protesting against the film, criticizing it saying that it misrepresents the image of the state.

Controversy over the plot based on conversion

manufacturers, Vipul Amritlal Shah and director Kamakhya Narayan Singhsays the film is based on real events. On the contrary, Muslim organizations and Congress allege that the film has been made to present the image of a particular community in a negative light. The film is scheduled to release on February 27, 2026, but in view of this protest, its release looks doubtful.

Women’s participation in special events

Before the release of the film, the makers organized a special event in which they invited women who came from different parts of the country. These women were sharing their life events. The makers say that they are trying to depict the reality through these stories.

Strong criticism by Congress

Soon after the event, Kerala Congress gave a strong reply on social media platform ‘X’. He blamed the film team and said that out of the 30 women introduced, not a single one was from Kerala and it was clear that the film was made only to tarnish the image of Kerala. He also raised the question that if the issue of ‘beef eating’ is being raised, then why does the BJP not make such films on Goa or the North-Eastern states.

Court proceedings and future situations

Producer Vipul Shah and his team consider the film to be inspired by reality, but critics say that it portrays the particular state unfairly. Several petitions have been filed to stop the release of the film, and the Kerala High Court may independently give its verdict after watching the film.
