Thiruvananthapuram/Hyderabad, Feb 26 (Maxim News): The Kerala High Court has taken a sensational decision on the release of The Kerala Story 2. It has imposed a stay on the release of the movie. On this occasion, the court made key comments. It stated that there are controversial elements in the movie. It also criticized the Central Board of Film Certification (CBFC) for giving a censor certificate without watching the movie. Hearing the petitions challenging the certificate issued by the CBFC to the movie, a bench of Justice Bechu Kurian Thomas issued an order imposing an interim stay on the release of the movie.
The court questioned the rationale behind giving the film a mere ‘U/A 16+’ certificate. The court questioned why a stricter classification was not made in view of the film’s plot and its impact on society. The bench was of the view that the concerns of the public should be taken into account, especially regarding the use of the name of the state in the title in a way that incites social hatred.
The producers of the film, while making their argument, said that the film is not limited to Kerala alone, but shows stories related to three states. That is why the subtitle Goes Beyond was added. However, the court came to the notice of the board that the film was cleared with about 16 cuts, dialogue changes, and a lengthy disclaimer. The legal battle is currently ongoing, and a final verdict is likely to be reached in the next hearing.
Meanwhile, Adah Sharma, who played the role of Shalini Unnikrishnan in the first part of the film, is going to play the role of Shalini Unnikrishnan. Sudeep Sen, who directed the first part, has also directed this sequel. Vipul Amritlal Shah. The film is produced under the banner of Sunshine Pictures. The censor board gave the film a U/A 16+ certificate after suggesting 16 cuts. (Maxim News)
