‘The Kerala Story’ has been accused of promoting Hindu nationalist propaganda. The film purports to depict the real-life account of three students, one Hindu and two Christian, who are allegedly coerced by Muslim individuals to join the Islamic State organization. This narrative aligns with the controversial "love jihad" theory propagated by Hindu nationalist groups.
