Several social media users reacted to the trailer of The Kerala Story in the comments section. One user wrote, “Biggest issue to highlight right now.”
Another comment read, “This is a true story. One of the girls I know, has gone through this. She was brainwashed and then one day kidnapped and sent to some centre in Malappuram where she was being trained to learn Syrian language. Later somehow she was brought back to her house since she was minor but she was so much brainwashed that she was speaking nonsense about Hinduism and its culture. She was totally unaware of what was coming for her, that she would have ended up in ISIS one day if she was not found. The government is totally in their favour. The poor can never fight legal battle to win them 😐 Sadly, the god's own country has been partially converted to Devil's own country 😣 Many such cases, but still there are people who say this is nothing but propaganda!”
Directed and produced by Vipul Shah, The Kerala Story stars Adah Sharma in the lead role. The actor will be playing the role of Fathima Ba, a Hindu Malayali nurse, who was among the 32,000 women who went missing from Kerala and were then recruited to the ISIS (Islamic State of Iraq and Syria) after being forced to convert to Islam.
Speaking about the film, Vipul Shah said that the film aims to create awareness about the conspiracy hatched against our country. “The film is an amalgamation of years of research and true stories which have never been dared to be told before, it will uncover many hidden truths that have been hidden for long. It will uncover the dangerous threat radicalisation poses to the women of our nation and will create awareness about this conspiracy being hatched against India.”
The Kerala Story will be released in theatres on May 5, 2023.
