The Kerala Story 2 Goes Beyond has become the talk of the town for the wrong reasons. After the trailer of the movie was released, the film landed in controversy, as it faced backlash on social media and also a few politicians criticised it. Now, the director of The Kerala Story 2, Kamakhya Narayan Singh, has reacted to the backlash.
While talking to India Today, Singh said, “It’s a fact-based film. There is this kind of thing happening all over the country, where love is used to trap girls, to change the demography of the country. It’s important that the country knows the facts about the situation in the country, how the girls are being trapped, and that is why we’ve made this film.”
The filmmaker added, “See, this is the truth. We can’t close our eyes and say there’s nothing happening in society. There are things happening in society, and we need to talk about it, we need to sensitise people about it. Or else, our daughters, our sisters will be caught in the trap.”
