On Thrusday the Supreme Court lifted the ban from the film ‘The Kerala Story’ from the state of West Bengal and Telangana. And next day, on 19th may the makers of ‘The Kerala Story’ organized a press conference to promote the film and to clear the air about the film for people of Bengal. The film’s director Sudipto Sen and actress Adah Sharma addressed media face-to-face while film’s producer and creative director Vipul Amrutlal Shah joined virtually and responded live to the media over a TV screen. He too addressed the media and sensibly responded to a lot of queries.
During the press conference, the makers also showed a video clip to the press in which real victims talked about the film’s story where they mentioned that incidents portrayed in the film actually happened in reality and a lot of women have gone missing.
Director Sudipta Sen said, “I am feeling disappointed. I came down to the city and saw that ‘The Kerala Story’ is not being screened in any hall of Kolkata even after the ban is revoked. Even on BookMyShow tickets of my film are not available for any movie theatre of the city”.
‘The Kerala Story’ has globally impacted the hearts and souls of the audience and does not appear to be slowing down in its surge of box office triumph. The film digs into the life tales of a converted religion woman who was misled and exploited by religious vanguards before being converted into an ISIS terrorist and taken to Syria.

Adah Sharma leads the cast along with Yogita Bihani, Sonia Balani and Siddhi Idnani. The Kerala Story is bankrolled by Sunshine Pictures Private Limited, founded by Vipul Amrutlal Shah who is also the Creative Director and the co-writer of the film. The film is co-produced by Aashin A Shah.
