New Delhi: The Kerala Story 2 has once again ignited controversy in India over its anti-Muslim content. Following the release of the first film, the latest installment has drawn criticism from mainstream media and Bollywood for promoting Hindutva narratives.
The trailer reportedly features scenes portraying Muslims negatively, and reports suggest that during a related event, participants took a pledge to socially and economically boycott Muslims.
The first film, The Kerala Story, had faced severe criticism and protests, with many calling it propaganda aimed at fostering communal divisions.
Social media reactions to the sequel have been similarly strong, with critics accusing the film of attempting to deepen societal divides and spread misinformation.
