Second part Of The Kashmir Files: Shiv Sena Leader Sanjay Raut Blasts The Kerala Story Makers
The Kerala Story Controversy: Shiv Sena leader and MP Sanjay Raut has joined a growing number of politicians to criticize the controversial film, The Kerala Story, over its claim that 32,000 Hindu women in Kerala were forcefully converted by ISIS in recent years.
Raut expressed his views on the matter in his weekly column Rokhthok, published in the Shiv Sena mouthpiece Saamana, where he referred to The Kerala Story as a propaganda tool by the BJP and the 'second part of The Kashmir Files'.
"To polarise the Hindu and Muslims ahead of the Karnataka polls, the BJP used The Kerala Story but this is not a good thing", he wrote.
Raut questioned the veracity of the film's claims and whether Hindu and Christian girls are really becoming victims of Islam in Kerala. Additionally, he inquired about the authenticity of claims that unsuspecting girls were being deceived under the guise of "love jihad" and coerced into becoming inhumane killers.
Raut expressed his concern about the inhumanity of the film and the BJP's promotion of it to polarize Hindu and Muslim voters ahead of the Karnataka polls.
Raut also mentioned The Kashmir Files, a film directed by Vivek Agnihotri that presented a gruesome picture of atrocities on Hindu Pandits in Kashmir. He accused the BJP of using the film for propaganda purposes, including PM Modi and Home Minister Amit Shah, who both watched the movie.
Raut criticized the BJP for banning a documentary film by the BBC on Gujarat riots but promoting films like The Kashmir Files and The Kerala Story, which he described as having a plot of brutality.
Despite being banned in West Bengal, The Kerala Story has earned Rs 135 crore worldwide, out of which Rs 113 crore has been collected in India.
We wonder how the makers of The Kerala Story would react to Sanjay Raut's statements.
