We are living in a time where even the films are creating a big sensation politically. This happened with The Kashmir Files. Besides a super box office run, the film went through a big political criticism. The opposition parties slammed the film calling it propaganda driven. Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal openly criticised the film.
A similar scene is happening around Kerala Story which will hit the theatres in a couple of days. The upcoming film created a sensation with the trailer itself. Kerala Story Kickstarter a controversy that a demand is going on to ban it.
The demand even went to the Supreme Court. Hearing the arguments the Apex Court said that it cannot issue a stay order on the film as it had already got the censor certificate. We can understand the situation as people movee the Supreme Court against it.
The film tells about the alleged process of how girls are converted into Islam and made to join the ISIS. Thousands of girls were converted allegedly as per the statements made by a former Chief Minister of Kerala.
The Muslim bodies are not happy with this and threw a challenge that they will give one crore as a gift if anyone proves that what the film is talking about is true. A few Kerala leaders are also supporting this. We can understand the situation as the Kerala government is not happy with the film and wants to stop the film.
Amid this a debate is going on about what would be the fate of Kerala Story in Telugu states. More particularly the discussion is about Hyderabad. What the film wants to show is a sensitive matter and would hurt the sentiments of many.
Keeping aside the debate of whether the film will show truth or lies, trailer hinted that it would show one community in bad light as it was shown how they brain wash Hindu girls.
AIMIM maintains friendly ties with the ruling BRS, so we have to see what happens with the film in Hyderabad. Earlier, controversial stand-up comedian Munawar Faruqui came to Hyderabad to perform, BJP MLA Raja Singh was arrested so that the show would happen without any issues.
Keeping all these issues in mind,it would be interesting to see what happens with the film in Hyderabad and adjacent areas. We might possibly see protests outside the theatres where the film will be screened.
