The Kerala Story has been written and directed by Sudipto Sen. Recently filmmaker Vivek Agnihotri had given a warning to The Kerala Story’s team including producer Vipul Shah, Sudipto Sen and Adah Sharma. Vivek had tweeted their lives ‘won’t be the same’.
Last month, a row started when The Kerala Story trailer claimed that 32,000 girls from the state went missing and later joined the terrorist group, ISIS. The Kerala High Court had recently noted that the producers have published a disclaimer along with the trailer on YouTube, which said that the film is fictionalised and is a dramatised version of events and that the film doesn’t claim accuracy or factuality of historic events.
