Prime Minister Narendra Modi Supports The Kerala Story By Saying, “When The Kerala Story Came, They Started Saying That Everything Is A Lie.
The Kerala Story 2: Goes Beyond, produced by Vipul Amrutlal Shah and directed by Kamakhya Narayan Singh, indeed created a stir with its nationwide release. While the film left a significant impact upon its release, it stood strong with its narrative, sparking conversations across the nation.
The impact of the film is evident, as Narendra Modi cited it while accusing the opposition of labeling such narrative-driven films as misleading or false.
Accusing the opposition for spreading fake narratives around movies, he said, “They are experts in lying. When The Kerala Story came, they started saying that everything is a lie. When The Kashmir Files came, they started saying that everything is a lie. When the Dhurandar film came, they started saying that everything is a lie.”
The Kerala Story follows women from Kerala shown being recruited into extremist organisations, centring on issues of radicalisation and exploitation. It faced objections by Congress and other opposition parties over claims of exaggeration and community targeting.
