The Kerala Story' is a controversial film that has sparked outrage in the southern state for its alleged attempts to spread misinformation and communal propaganda.

In a scathing critique on Sunday, Kerala's Chief Minister Pinarayi Vijayan accused the creators of "The Kerala Story", a controversial film, of propagating the ideology of the Sangh Parivar. He referred to the family of organizations affiliated with or inspired by the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), the ideological foundation of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), and their portrayal of the southern state as a hub of religious extremism. Despite the courts, investigative agencies, and even the Union Home Ministry having rejected the concept of "love jihad", the chief minister claimed that the film makers still chose to highlight it.


In a statement, the Chief Minister alleged that the trailer of the film was intentionally created to stir up communal tensions and spread hate propaganda against the state. He further accused the Sangh Parivar of attempting to disrupt the religious harmony in Kerala by promoting communalism. The CM also criticized the film for falsely claiming that 32,000 women in Kerala were converted and joined the Islamic State. He dismissed this narrative as a fabrication created by the Sangh Parivar's propaganda machine.

The CM emphasized that freedom of expression should be exercised responsibly and not be used to spread lies and divisive ideologies.


Sudipto Sen's 'The Kerala Story' claims to reveal the circumstances behind the disappearance of around 32,000 women in the southern state, who the film falsely alleges were radicalised and deployed for terrorist missions in India and beyond.

Opposition leader V D Satheesan denounced 'The Kerala Story', stating that the film was a "bundle of lies" with a false claim that 32,000 women were converted and sent to Islamic State-held areas. He accused Sangh Parivar outfits of promoting the film and attempting to defame both the state and the community. Satheesan's comments come amidst growing concerns about the content of the film, which has faced allegations of spreading misinformation and negative portrayals of the Muslim community.
